Tick Tock Says the Clock

Tick tock, says the clock
The clock is wearing me down.
Tick tock, says the clock
The hands spin, my mind races.
Tick tock, says the clock
Papers and assignments
Research, blogger, articles
Read, read, read,
Tick tock, says the clock
Another hour gone
Tick tock, says the clock
Time is driving the day.
Tick tock, says the clock
I'm driving now.
Fast to pass, always rush
Zoom, zoom,zoom
Tick tock, says the clock
Downtime doesn't exist
Tick tock, says the clock
Shower change and off again.
Tick tock, Tick tock
Thank your for calling, what can we make you?
Medium, rare, well? What sides?
Sizzle. sizzle, sizzle
Tick tock, says the clock,
Count the money, make it right.
Tick tock, says the clock
Don't slow down, stay on your grind,
Tick tock, says the clock
Its closing time
Clean, stock, count
Home, home, home
Tick tock, says the clock,
Kick the shoes hang the keys
Tick tock, says the clock
Outfit for tomorrow, p.j's for tonight
Tick tock, says the clock
I lay awake, tomorrow is here
Toss and turn, check the time
Zzzz, Zzzz, Zzzz
Tick tock, I'm the clock
I never sleep
Tick tock, I'm the clock
invade your dreams
Tick tock,I'm the clock
I rule your life
Tick tock, I'm the clock
I say you rise
Tick tock, says the clock
The day is new
Tick tock, says the clock
I start again
Tick tock, says the clock
It never ends
Tick tock, says the clock.
