Lyrics

Time Machine

Hey, what did I do? Can't believe the fit I just threw Stupid (Hey!) Wanted the reaction (Hey!) (Wanted the reaction)

I remember the words How I said them, so they would hurt But then, (Hey!) I regret my actions (Hey!) I regret my actions

If I could press rewind Rewind the tape Redefine the line We make mistakes Take it back in time Just one day (Hey!) Ay

So all I need is a Time Machine A one way track 'cause I'm taking it back, taking it back All I want is a DeLorean If I could go just like that I'll be taking it back, taking it back

Yeah who's laughing now? Didn't think you'd actually go Stupid (Hey!) Me and all my bitching (Hey!) (Me and all my bitching)

Second thoughts and regrets Wanna alt, delete and reset but then (Hey!) This ain't science fiction (Hey!) (This ain't science fiction)

If I could press rewind Rewind the tape Redefine the line We make mistakes Take it back in time Just one day (Hey!) Ay

So all I need is a Time Machine A one way track 'cause I'm taking it back, taking it back All I want is a DeLorean If I could go just like that I'll be taking it back, taking it back

Taking it back, taking it back Taking it back, taking it back

So all I need is a Time Machine A one way track 'cause I'm taking it back, taking it back All I want is a DeLorean If I could go just like that I'll be taking it back, taking it back

Taking it back, taking it back Oh yeah!

From Dork

Robyn on Dork

Jorja Smith, Robyn and Fcukers have won at the 2026 Independent Music Awards

Jorja Smith, Robyn, Fcukers, Jalen Ngonda and Jim Legxacy are among this year’s AIM Independent Music Awards winners.

What was Robyn’s La Bagatelle Magique project, and how did ‘Love Is Free’ emerge after Christian Falk’s death?

Robyn, Christian Falk and Markus Jägerstedt’s 2015 mini-album began as an open-ended collaboration and was completed after Falk’s death.

How the dance floor fed back into Jamie xx’s music from ‘In Waves’ to ‘Dream Night’

From post-pandemic DJ sets to a single made while touring, Jamie xx’s recent work treats the dance floor as part of the production process.

Why Robyn remade ‘Blow My Mind’ as a song about her son

Robyn’s return to a 2002 song for ‘Sexistential’ was a way of giving early motherhood’s fierce, contradictory closeness its own language.
