Got our heels dug in But time is draggin' us toward The time when time won't matter anymore They say life is but a vapor Just a blip on a radar screen Not the dates on your tombstone But the dash in between There's just today, that's all we got There's just today, that's all we got
Tick-tock, the past is locked The future's far away You can't go back, you can't hurry it up You gotta learn to live today Tick-tock, it's now o'clock The little hand is ours The second hand sweeps us around And the Big Hand has the power The Big Hand has the power
Well am I livin' or am I dyin' Will the world get another day? I hear a baby cryin', and I pluck out another gray I'm always talkin' about a change But talkin's all I've done I'm gonna start tomorrow But tomorrow never comes There's just today, that's all we got There's just today, that's all we got
Tick-tock, the past is locked The future's far away You can't go back, you can't hurry it up You gotta learn to live today Tick-tock, it's now o'clock The little hand is ours The second hand sweeps us around And the Big Hand has the power The Big Hand has the power
Always runnin' late Don't procrastinate Leavin' in a hurry Life is rollin' on Give me just a second Wait another minute Sleep another hour See another day dawn Call you next week See you in a month Celebrate a season Now another year's gone Well there goes a decade, a century, millenium And here comes eternity, eternity, eternity Here comes eternity, eternity What's up with eternity?
Tick-tock, the past is locked The future's far away You can't go back, you can't hurry it up You gotta learn to live today Tick-tock, it's now o'clock The little hand is ours The second hand sweeps us around And the Big Hand has the power The Big Hand has the power
