Seconds

There is a clock up there Making the countdown Seconds fall like drops Over the ground There is a clock somewhere For each one of us Measuring time that passes Leaving dust How many seconds up to the twenty-first century? How many seconds up to the twenty-first century? We are grains of sand In a sandglass Waiting for our turn to fall Into the other part Every second that goes May be the last one So the only thing to do Is run How many seconds up to the twenty-first century? How many seconds up to the twenty-first century? How many seconds up? How many seconds up? How many seconds up to the twenty-first century? There is a clock up there Making the countdown Seconds fall like drops Over the ground There is a clock somewhere For each one of us Measuring time that passes Leaving dust How many seconds up to the twenty-first century? How many seconds up to the twenty-first century?
