Like Clockwork
Lyricist:Pete Briquette, Simon Crowe, Bob Geldof
Tick tock Tick tock Tick tock
I'm not disconnected I'm not unaware I'm in one place at one time I'm neither here nor there
I'm hooked to the mainstream, tuned into the world Plugged into my surroundings, it's not out on a limb I'm thinking in a straight line, I'm thinking that these thoughts are mine My heart is beating oh so fast, I feel the hours crashing
Now my mind keeps time like clockwork And I think in sync like clockwork
Tick tock Tick tock Tick tock
She's done away with emotion She sees things clearly now She says she sees it all from her room And it looks so small from her room
It's all right (It's all right) It's all right (It's all right) I'm on your side for a while She thinks time is a concept by which we measure our age She wants to say it again, but she don't have time
Because the mind keeps time like clockwork And she think in sync like clockwork

Count the hours Count the months and minutes You're born in tears And you die in pain and that's your limit
You're lookin' for some [Incomprehensible]reasons but there's none There, why don't you admit it We'll make the most of what we've got, that's the ticket My, my, my, my
I stayed in that room a long, long time And watched the seasons gliding past And hey what's the matter? We've got time, lots of time
It's all right (It's all right) It's all right (It's all right) I'm on your side for a while We'll wind up, we'll slow down We'll speed up, move around and we'll maybe overwind
Because my mind keeps time like clockwork And I think in sync like clockwork
When my mind keeps time like clockwork And we think in sync like clockwork
