Tick, tock, tick, tock
7:00, time to wake up
Get ready, get ready, and please eat enough
It’s off to school, off to school
Off to work, off to work
Get ready, get ready, step with a perk
Tick, tock, tick, tock
Work, work, work, work
Don’t screw up, don’t screw up
Stay on the clock, stay on the clock
Tick, tock, tick, tock
Keep focusing on the clock
Don’t let your time run out
Keep at it, keep at it
Don’t let your time run out
Don’t let your time run out
Keep it concise, keep it concise
You’ve got way too much to do
Please don’t get stuck, don’t get stuck
Tick, Tock, Tick, Tock
Don’t let your time run out
Cram 5 tasks into a minute
You can do it
You can do it
If you don’t let your time run out
Get it done, get it done
And don’t let your time run out
So much to do, so much to do
Please don’t let your time run out
Tick, Tock, Tick, Tock
Time’s running out and you still aren’t done
Hurry it up, hurry it up
Make it concise and hurry it up
Don’t let your time run out
Don’t let your time run out
No time for idleness
For then your time will run out
Always stay working, always stay learning
And maybe the clock will freeze for a minute
So your time doesn’t run out
TICK, TOCK, TICK, TOCK
Keep working all day long
Because your time is running out
Don’t let your time run out, don’t let your time run out
Then maybe you can have some fun
Actually, SCRATCH THAT!
No time for fun!
Gotta keep your time in check
Don’t let it run out
…don’t.
TICK, TOCK, TICK, TOCK
Has my time run out? I can’t be sure
The ticking’s too loud, I can’t think anymore
I can’t let my time run out
But I can’t be sure if I don’t know how much I’ve left
Constantly devoted to my work
Work, work, work, work
I got distracted
My time ran out
Oh no oh no
My time has run out
Curse you, clock!
Curse you, tick tock!
And that constant reminder of what I have lost!
All the time wasted so worried, and yet,
I still worry and wonder ‘bout what I have left
Do I have any left?
Anything at all?
Or am I a slave to that thing on the wall?
That thing that always goes tick and tock
Making me worried about the clock
The clock the clock that goes tick and tock
And I can’t remember what I lost
Tick, tock, tick, tock
The sound is engraved into my skull
But I can’t fight back for I’ve lost it all
All of my sanity, all of my hope,
All because I couldn’t keep track of that stupid, stupid clock.
