| Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, tick tock |
| Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, tick tock |

| Tick tock, tick tock |
| I’m not disconnected, I’m not unaware |
| I’m in one place at one time |
| I’m neither here nor there |
| I’m hooked to the mainstream |
| Tuned into the world |
| Plugged into my surroundings |
| Not out on a limb |
| I’m thinking in a straight line |
| I’m thinking that these thoughts are mine |
| My heart is beating, oh so fast |
| I feel the hours crushing down |
| And my mind feels time like clockwork |
| And I think in sync like clockwork |
| Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, tick tock |
| Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, tick tock |
| She’s done away with emotion |
| She sees things clearly now |
| She says she sees it all from her room |
| And it looks so small from her room |
| It’s alright, it’s alright |
| I’m on your side for a while |
| She thinks the time is a concept |
| Which we measure our age |
| She wants to say it again |
| But she don’t have time |
| Because her mind keeps time like clockwork |
| And she thinks in sync like clockwork |
| Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, tick tock |
| Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, tick tock |
| Count the hours, count the months and minutes |
| You’re born in the tears and you’ll die in pain that’s your limit |
| You’re lookin' for some nasty reason |
| But there’s no one there, why don’t you admit? |
| 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 |
