"The Watch On My Wrist" lyrics

"The Watch On My Wrist"

There's a watch on my wrist with a comprehensive list
Of foreign times in unfamiliar climes
And I gaze each day at its digital display
But it won't tell me how I can win your kiss
So I don't care much for the watch on my wrist
It can calculate the exchange rate
When I look into its file, there's a liquid crystal smile
And a lifelong guarantee, but it won't tell me
When the time will come to find the love that I have missed
So I don't care much for the watch on my wrist
This harmless thing in satin steel
Don't have a clue how bad I feel
Maybe it came all the way from Japan
But all I have is time on my hands
The watch on my wrist will wind without a twist
It even plays a tune to say "Please wake up soon"
But there's just no information on my heart rate situation
And it won't tell me when I will know of love's sweet bliss
So I don't care much for the watch on my wrist
No, I don't care much for the watch on my wrist
