about

October 26, 1985, 1:35 a.m., Lone Pine Mall parking lot. Doc Brown has just survived an assault rifle attack. He has yet to experience the time travel machine that he invented, and will soon be having an internal conversation trying to decide what his next move will be.

lyrics

time again to plan ahead, time to find another way
libyans and violence always getting in the way
first you grab the gun again then make sure the coast is clear
plenty of plutonium, it can take you anywhere

have lunch with Edison
1927
or meet up with Faraday
Hampton Court #37

time to clean up everything, get it all back in the van
others will be coming soon so you need another plan
find a secret hideaway, maybe some deserted shack
pack up the delorean, you might not be coming back

go back to gettysburg
271 memorable words
or hear the voice of a carpenter
back at the mount of beatitudes
so long ago

watching the world around go back to what it was
go do whatever thing it is you’re thinking of

here’s another strategy if you wanna stay alive
drop the kid off quickly then get back in the car and drive
make a new reality, you’ve got everything you need
you can see tomorrow, you just need a little speed

you can forget your fears
just jump ahead by 30 years
or see the 23rd century
where you could live to eternity
or maybe more

life can pass you by
someday you’ll wake up but you won’t know that’s the day you die
there’s no compromise
just as certain as the sun will fall and the moon will rise
but this changes everything, yeah this changes everything
mathematics physics logic every concept of reality
yeah this changes everything, this changes every little thing
create a new beginning by watching the world around go back to what it was
