We'll make the most of what we've got That's the ticket, my, my, my I stayed in that room a long, long time And watched the seasons gliding by And hey, what's the matter? We've got time, lots of time It's alright, it's alright I'm on your side for a while We'll wind up, we'll slow down We'll speed up, we'll go down And we'll maybe overwind Because my mind feel time like clockwork And I think in sync like clockwork, oh, oh, oh When the minds feel time like clockwork Oh, we'll think in sync like clockwork Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, tick tock Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, tick tock Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, tick tock Tick tock, tick tock
