School or a date, you'll always be late
Your head in the clouds
Your father a geek, your mother a freak
Don't you end up like them, no no

Enter a man with a crazy plan
A wild machine the world's never seen
Jump inside this strange device and ride

[Chorus]
Coming back from the past
Outatime, make it fly, make it fast
Going back to the future
Hold on tight, make it right, make it last

Oh newly arrived back in old 55
You're not even alive yet
But what have you done... mother and son
You're fading away, yeah

This is not the end so find your friend
You're not alone, he'll get you home
Jump inside this strange device and ride

[Chorus]

And when the lightning strikes
You have to be precise
Exactly ten-o-four
And not a second before

And when the lightning strikes
(You're in the leg of the gods)
You have to be precise
(The final turn of the cards)
Exactly ten-o-four (you can't afford a mistake)
And not a second before (the final roll of the dice)

[Solo]

That fatal night, caught in a fight
Your lives are in danger
They come at you hard, so please be on your guard
In the wink of an eye, you will die
Enter a man with a crazy plan
A wild machine the world's never seen
Jump inside this strange device and ride

[Chorus]

And when the lightning strikes
You have to be precise
Exactly ten-o-four
And not a second before
