Timebomb

(album: ReBoot - 2000)

Time, time, time, tick ticking away
Tick ticking away like a timebomb
Time, time, time, tick ticking away
Tick ticking away like a timebomb

Gonna shout, gonna scream
Modern life's a mean machine
Out of luck, out of space
Praying on the human race
Laugh out loud, to let off steam
Funny 'cos I know your face
Permanently inbetween
You draw a king, they draw an ace

Time, time, time, tick ticking away
Tick ticking away like a timebomb
Time, time, time, tick ticking away
Tick ticking away like a timebomb

Try to stay cool, you're no-one's fool
The weirdest kid you knew at school
Forgetting or just breaking rules
From where he stands the world looks cruel
Throw him out, his roof removed
Stamped upon him not approved
Victims, yeah the people who
The jungle tries to keep from you

Time, time, time, tick ticking away
Tick ticking away like a timebomb
Time, time, time, tick ticking away
Tick ticking away like a timebomb

Moving, breathing, wheeling, scheming
Nearly stealing, double dealing
Hold on tight, you're clutching fast
Hoping it's not gonna last
Pinch myself, but I don't wake up
Someone stole my buttercup
Caress turned to karate chop
Mercy someone, make it stop

Time, time, time, tick ticking away
Tick ticking away like a timebomb
Time, time, time, tick ticking away
Tick ticking away like a timebomb
