"Got The Time" lyrics

"Got The Time"
(originally by Joe Jackson)

Wake up, got another day to get
Through now, got another man to see
Gotta call him on the telephone way-o
Gotta find a piece of paper

Sit down, got another letter to write
Think hard, gotta get a letter just right
Little ringing on the telephone, whoa, no
Gotta write another letter

No such thing as tomorrow, all we want
One, two, three, go!

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, ask me what the time is
I don't know, only know I gotta go now

No time, trying to get my watch repaired
No time, never got a thing to wear
Little ringing on the telephone, whoa, no
Hear a ringing in my head now

No such thing as tomorrow, all we want
One, two, three, go!

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

No such thing as tomorrow, all we want
One, two, three, go!

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
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
