Darling, remember 
When you come to me
I'm the pretender
And not what I'm supposed to be
But who could know if I'm a traitor
Time's the revelator
They caught the katy
And left me a mule to ride
The fortune lady 
Came along, she walked beside
But every word seemed to date her
Time's the revelator
The revelator
Up in the morning 
Up and on the ride
I drive into Corning 
And all the spindles whine
And every day is getting straighter
Time's the revelator
The revelator
Leaving the valley 
And fucking out of sight
I'll go back to Cali 
Where I can sleep out every night 
And watch the waves and move the fader
Time's the revelator
The revelator
Queen of the fakes and imitators
Time's the revelator
