All this talk, all this ticking, all this shit talk

Ticking in my head, I'm staying in bed today

And it doesn't matter what they'll have to say to me

No, I do not care just what they'll have to say to me

'Cause I am not listening

"Tick-tick-tock, ticky-ticky-tock, ticky-ticky-tock"

Goes the clock and I sit and I watch the hours go

Lying on my back I watch this big world float

And I do not care just what they'll have to say to me

'Cause I am not listening (he is not listenin0

No, I am not listening to you

You, you, you, you, and you

You, you, you, you, you, you

You, you, you, you, and you

You, you, you, you

Tick-tock-tick-tock, ticky-ticky-tick-tock

Big hand, little hand, no hand, slow hand

Sitting in my hand is the sand of a shattered hourglass

And I throw these grains of sand into the wind and laugh, ha-ha!

And I do not care just what they'll have to say about that

'Cause the sandman told me, there's no use in listening

Bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bada

Dum-bum-bum-bum-bah!

A-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum

I am not listening to (bum-bum-bum-bum)

I am not listening to (bum-bum-bum-bum)

I am not listening to (bum-bum-bum-bum)

I am not listening to (bum-bum-bum-bada)

I am not listening to you (she is not listening)

You, you, you, you, and you

You, you, you, you, you, you

You, you, you, you, and you

You, you, you, you

Tick-tock-tick-tock, ticky-ticky-tick-tock
