Joe Jackson Got the Time

Tekst piosenki

Wake up, got another day to get through now
Got another man to see
Got to call him on the telephone
Got to find a piece of paper

Sit down, got another letter to write
Think I’ll try to get the letter just right
There’s a ringing on the telephone
Oh no, got to write a little later
No such day as tomorrow, only one two three go!

[Chorus]
Time – got the time tick-tick-ticking in my head
Time – got the time tick-tick-ticking in my head
Time – got the time tick-tick-ticking in my head
Ticking in my head
Ticking in my head
Ticking in my head

If I tell you what I’m doing today
Will you shut up and get out of my way?
Someone asked me what the time is
I don’t know
Only know I gotta go now

No time – trying to get a watch repaired
No time – never got a thing to wear
Hear the ringing of the telephone no no
Hear a ringing in my head now
No such thing as tomorrow, only one two three go!

[Chorus][Repeat 2x]
