I Want To Be In The Time Patrol
(Music and lyrics by Scott Ryan)
For Poul Anderson
(Chorus:)
I want to be in the Time Patrol;
I want to guard Earth's history.
I want to be in the Time Patrol—
Why haven't they recruited me?
Rapacious men can change the past
Now that they know how,
With a time machine invented
Just a hundred years from now.
But from the far-flung future
Comes the power to fight these heinous crimes:
Time Patrol, standing guard
Along the corridors of time.
(Chorus)
They choose from every era
The brightest and the best,
But they have to work in secret
So that they don't change the past.
From the far-flung future
With the power to fight those heinous crimes
Time Patrol, standing guard
Along the corridors of time.
(Chorus)
I want to take that sacred oath
To guard the past from harm
And go springing into action
At the Time Patrol alarm!
(Chorus)
