HURRY UP MR. CLOCK song lyrics
by Joel Sattler

when I got that
letter from her
I could have jumped over the moon

because she said that
she'd be coming home soon
on the seventh day of June

can't wait
even one more day
I can't sit still I can't explain

because my baby
she's on the way home
on the early redeye train

be
quick
tock
tick
hurry up, Mr. Clock!

when she left here
she was not coming back
she said goodbye and walked away

but now she knows
that I'm what she wants
how can I hold on one more day?

went to the station
12 hours in advance
because I don't know what to do

and when she gets off
the platform at dawn
that's when I know it's really true

be
quick
tick tock tick tock tick tock tick
hurry up, Mr. Clock!

when she left here
she was not coming back
she said goodbye and walked away

but now she knows
that I'm what she wants
I gotta hold at least for one more day!
