The lyrics suggest a sense of confusion and disorientation as the normal progression of time and seasons becomes erratic and unpredictable.<\/p>\n<p>In the verses, the repetition of &#8220;Is this time snafu affecting you&#8221; emphasizes the universality of the experience, highlighting how climate change impacts everyone. The bridge, with its plea to &#8220;tell me true,&#8221; suggests a desire for honesty and acknowledgment of the reality of the situation.<\/p>\n<p>The chorus draws attention to the abnormality of the seasons, noting that they seem to have lost their traditional patterns and reasons. The mention of May and June coming &#8220;too soon&#8221; implies a distortion of the natural order and a sense of imbalance.<\/p>\n<p>The instrumental sections, with the Hammond B3 organ, synthesizers, saxophone solo, and bass, create a mood of uncertainty and unease, mirroring the chaotic nature of climate change.<\/p>\n<p>The song serves as a commentary on the disruptive effects of climate change on the passage of time and the natural world, urging listeners to recognize and address the urgent need for action.<\/p>\n<h3>From the album &#8220;Nowadays&#8221; by <a href=\"http:\/\/membrane.com\/The_Beatless_Sense_Mongers\/\">The Beatless Sense Mongers<\/a><\/h3>\n<h2><a href=\"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/MegaEpix-Enormous\/\">MegaEpix Enormous<\/a><\/h2>\n<h2><a href=\"http:\/\/membrane.com\/global_warming\/\">A song about The Human Induced Climate Change Experiment<\/a><\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Time-Snafu.mp3 Time-Snafu.mp4 Time-Snafu__(You?).mp3 Time-Snafu__(You?).mp4 Do you know what time it is?
