And I think you were sitting beside me
In a fold in the face of the fell.
For time in its work will go round in a circle,
And what is befalling befell.

CHORUS:

Theta, theta, see you later
I think I have been here before.
Theta, theta, see you later
How long has this got to go on?
How long has this got to go on?

“I have been here before,” I asserted
In a nook in the neck of the Nile.
I once in a crisis was punished by Isis,
And you smiled — I remember your smile.

I had the same sense of persistence
On the site of the seat of the Sioux;
I heard from the teepee the sound of a sleepy
Pleistocene grunt — it was you.

CHORUS:

Theta, theta, see you later
I think I have been here before.
Theta, theta, see you later
How long has this got to go on?
How long has this got to go on?

Time made a promise before it began
To begin to be gone.
This limited gamut brings you again, damn it!
How long has this got to go on?
How long has this got to go on?

CHORUS:

Theta, theta, see you later
I feel in the distance another existence,
Theta, theta, see you later
I think I have been here before.
Theta, theta, see you later
For time in its work will go round in a circle,
Theta, theta, see you later
How long has this got to go on?
Theta, theta, see you later.
