Look at the time up on the wall The clock is tellin´ it all wrong You got to slow down You got to slow down Slow it right off the wall
Got to slow down
My hat is bent Oh, I got a bent hat Maybe I´ll slow down And straighten it out And then twist it all around Then put it down
And I´m bobblin´ down 124th Street And I think I´m bobblin´ to a brighter day And the radio´s playing A different kind of music And the universe is starting to shake
Look at the time, it´s 12:30 I´m going to hell and I´m late for it But I´ll slow down
And talk about it And the world goes ´round And then comes back down
Now I´m swingin´ about My every daily business And I´m pondering out about How it´s daily been And it´s easy to feel if you´re useless But it´s strange when you tell your friends
So I reloaded my fax machine With some fresh clean paper So I can slow down and have A slow time printing it out Then the roof blew off again And it came back down
And the hurricanes and storms Cover the landscape And the picture frames are Floating off the wall And the hourglass is Twisting a little bit sideways And the neighborhood is all gone
Look at the time on the wall ´Cause it´s going very very really slowly now And it´s the only thing anybody ever talks about And the scientists are always trying to figure out And the physicists are always letting it bounce around And the novelists are typically writing stories about it And the journalists are usually breaking news about it
And the pharmacists are frequently making drugs about it And the charities are always raising money for it And the {client´s name} is always there And the {client´s name} always cares
