tick tock
tick tock
man, what's happened to my body clock?
been hit by a trock
i'm fock - ed

workin' grave yard
shift
ain't too hard
pard
caffine gives a lift
but, that ain't no gift

on my feet
11pm 'till 7am
ain't so neat
gotdam
i'm beat
retreat, retreat
body slam

need to sleep!
sleep, sleep, sleep
deep
without a peep
readum' & weep

too much caffine
fealin' lean
gettin' mean
know what i mean?
seein' the unseen
lost in the in-between

tryin' ta' sleep
curled in a heap
countin' sheep
little bo-peep
doin' the sleep creep
takes a leap

wide awake
for pete's sake
double take
double take
no piece a' cake
wide awake
wide awake

tick tock
tick tock
my body clock
is fock - ed
tick tock
tick tock
tick tock

Time and duty are bound and detemined to send us to the next dimension, Steve. That's only one of the problems of living in this time and place. Thank you. Love and peace.
