Lyrical Analysis of...
Tick Tock
- yup
- Its old school
- hearing the clock going tick tock
- Seems like times never coming to a full stop
- Grandfathers moving from side to side
- Only chiming at one time
- but the chime is like an old rhyme,
- Mice running up the clock,
- the clock struck one,
- more like the clock struck done,
- hickory dickory dock.
- Nightime rhymes,
- making the kids minds go why,
- falling asleep to the sounds of tick tock.
- Cause God knows reality was blocked,
- we were babes in this tiny time warp,
- never worrying bout no support,
- nor caring bout them reports,
- just colors floating in our minds,
- the day was on replay,
- cause time flew anyway,
- no importance,
- no recognition,
- cause now we lookin back,
- thinking bout how naive and stupid we all were,
- for letting the precious slip right from our laps.
- Grandathers moving from side to side,
- but the rhymes have been held up,
- seems the mind has just shut up,
- So we are hearing the tick tock,
- but there is no clock,
- the sound is in our heads,
- cause time is escaping like sweat,
- one after the other,
- drip drop,
- missing the wave of the hand across the face,
- tick tock,
- hasnt stopped,
- its dropped.
- Im feeling all the right funk,
- I don't drink to get drunk,
- I drink for the purpose of survival,
- Never getting behind the wheel,
- Cause life's too precious,
- Cause time needs to go tick tock,
- In order for time to restart,
- The gears spinning in that clock,
- Like the hands of time spinning on those rhymes,
- Cause time stops for no one,
- Just keeps on spinning,
- Round and round,
- Faster and faster,
- Till the hands just fall off.
- I don't sleep for those sweet dreams,
- I sleep for an escape,
- Keeping those eyes just shut,
- Tossing and turning,
- Cause my mind won't cut,
- Pondering on about those mistakes,
- All those fakes,
- Cause lord knows i'm undoubting,
- Just keep on letting them in,
- Even though hearts have been broken time after time,
- But i guess the clock just keeps going tick tock,
- Cause the pain don't stop,
- It won't make you halt,
- It's not worth the time,
- Yes the hands are moving slower now,
- But they be speeding up,
- Until you hear the tick tock.
