Lyrics: Get out of bed dad, did you hear the bell
You must still be dreaming, can't you tell
In a minute you'll be gone and out the door
Finish up your coffee and take some more

You kinda thought you had the time
And now it's gone
Time to face the music
And sing along

I always knew you'd be ok
And always find a way
I never thought you'd spend your life
In a one act play

The dream is over, was it ever here
You spend your whole life living in a world of fear
You never took the chances that you had to take
Never wound up searching for that lucky break

You kinda thought you had the time
And now it's gone
Time to face the music
And sing along

I always knew you'd be ok
And always find a way
I never thought you'd spend your life
In a one act play

You kinda thought you had the time
But now it's gone
Time to face the mirror

About the Artist
Zoo Pilot

Zoo Pilot is a newly formed indie rock band based in Austin, TX. Comprised of former members of Sleep Station (Eyeball Records), Zoo Pilot combines the classic sounds of bands like the Beatles, Kinks and Zombies with modern indie-rock sensibilities to create a unique, timeless sound.
With Brad Paxton handling vocals and guitar and Josh Nichols on bass and drums, the group looks forward to bringing their diverse sound and often left-of-center lyrical themes to the many music fans of Austin and beyond.
They have lent their compositional and production talents to a number of television shows, including CBS's Cold Case, American Idol Rewind and the Showtime series Shameless. They record and mix their songs at Brad's home studio in South Austin.
