Tick Tock Lyrics

Got our heels dug in
But time is draggin� us toward
The time when time won�t matter anymore
They say life is but a vapor
Just a blip on a radar screen
Not the dates on your tombstone
But the dash in between
There�s just today, that�s all we got
There�s just today, that�s all we got

Tick-tock, the past is locked
The future�s far away
You can�t go back, you can�t hurry it up
You gotta learn to live today
Tick-tock, it�s now o�clock
The little hand is ours
The second hand sweeps us around
And the Big Hand has the power
The Big Hand has the power

Well am I livin� or am I dyin�
Will the world get another day?
I hear a baby cryin�, and I pluck out another gray
I�m always talkin� about a change
But talkin�s all I�ve done
I�m gonna start tomorrow
But tomorrow never comes
There�s just today, that�s all we got
There�s just today, that�s all we got

Tick-tock, the past is locked
The future�s far away
You can�t go back, you can�t hurry it up
You gotta learn to live today
Tick-tock, it�s now o�clock
The little hand is ours
The second hand sweeps us around
And the Big Hand has the power
The Big Hand has the power

Always runnin� late
Don�t procrastinate
Leavin� in a hurry
Life is rollin� on
Give me just a second
Wait another minute
Sleep another hour
See another day dawn
Call you next week
See you in a month
Celebrate a season
Now another year�s gone
Well there goes a decade, a century, millenium
And here comes eternity, eternity, eternity
Here comes eternity, eternity
What�s up with eternity?

Tick-tock, the past is locked
The future�s far away
You can�t go back, you can�t hurry it up
You gotta learn to live today
Tick-tock, it�s now o�clock
The little hand is ours
The second hand sweeps us around
And the Big Hand has the power
The Big Hand has the power
