cast of the curious case of benjamin button - matter of time i lyrics
[tonnow, spoken]
and perhaps, if a particular chain of events had not been set in motion
this would’ve continued every friday night for the rest of benjamin’s life
[strangers]
but a chain of events had been set in motion
very early that mornin’
friday, march the third, 1933
[avoryow, spoken]
at 7:25 a.m., mr. and mrs. thomas bennett were drivin’ along a road 2.6 miles northeast of the pickled crab
[strangers]
in their brand new six cylinder vauxhall 12
[mrs bennett, spoken]
look at the time you berk, we’re gonna be late
can’t this d+mn thing go any faster?
[strangers]
mr. bennett sighed and replied
[mr bennett, spoken]
of coursе
[strangers]
then he put down his foot as he drеamed of divorce
[tewes, spoken]
at that exact same moment, in that exact same spot
a curious sheep who had been grazin’ nearby slipped through a fence an’ into the road
[female strangers]
mrs. bennett screamed
[male strangers]
and mr. bennett woke up
[strangers]
but it was too late for the sheep
[the sheep, spoken]
baa?
[strangers]
god rest that sheep
[treth, spoken]
the vauxhall 12 came to a stop
on its side in a ditch beside the road
[gwyns, spoken]
the car, the sheep, and mr. bennett’s right ankle, the only three casualties
[mrs bennett, spoken]
oh, you bl++dy pillock
[strangers]
poor mr. bennett
all just a matter of time
it’s all just a matter of
precisely thirty+five minutes later on that same day
millie dyer took her garden gnome and made her way
into town to miss moncrief’s for a pot of lady grey
but on their way she came across a little hitch
[millie dyer, spoken]
what in the bl++dy h+ll?
[strangers]
the road blocked by a tractor pullin’ the vauxhall from the ditch
the bennetts’ vauxhall from the ditch
[millie dyer, spoken]
oh, for goodness’ sake, come on gerald
[ebron, spoken]
so, millie dyer instead carried gerald to the clifftop footpath
a route that would extend their journey by precisely three minutes and fourteen seconds
[strangers]
three minutes and fourteen seconds
three minutes and fourteen seconds
she opened the door, but bumped into the proprietor
causin’ her to pour a pot of boilin’ lady grey
into captain arthur adam carrick’s lap
[miss moncrief, spoken]
oh, sorry my darlin’
[strangers]
painfully scaldin’ his–
[captain carrick, spoken]
yah
[strangers]
poor chap
oh, it’s all just a matter of time
all just a, all just a matter of time
[keynvor, spoken]
in that exact same tearoom, a frustrated mrs. gladstone
who had already been waitin’ seventeen minutes to be served that pot of lady grey
walked out the door
[growan, spoken]
returnin’ home a full hour earlier than expected
mrs. gladstone discovered mr. gladstone
in bed with mrs. gladstone’s sister–
[mrs gladstone’s sister, spoken]
wasson?
[mrs gladstone, spoken]
mr. gladstone?
[mr gladstone, spoken]
mrs. gladstone
mrs. gladstone’s sister
oh, b+gg+r
[strangers]
oh, it’s all just a matter of time
all just a, all just a matter of time
oh, it’s all just a matter of time
it’s all just a matter of
eight hours and one minute later, in the pickled crab
benjamin b+tton thanked elowen keene for his beer
he turned away from the bar in the pickled crab
and encountered mr. gladstone
he’d been mournin’ the end of his marriage all day
so benjamin stepped left to keep out of his way
and tripped up on an ankle that was stretched out too far
that had been hurt when mr. bennett k!lled a sheep with his car
and benjamin fell into captain carrick’s lap
which was scaldin’ from that boilin’ tea’s encounter with his chap
captain carrick rose and proceeded place
his fisherman’s fist into benjamin’s face
oh, it’s all just a matter of time
all just a, all just a matter of time
oh, it’s all just a matter of time
it’s all just a matter of
