Internal parts spread out Taken apart, way across Hop-scotch blocks, And little girls Hippity-hop Toes in each block In time to a tune Drums pock a beat On the little child Inside the watch Icky-tickity, tock, tock A tear from the eyes Like a drip, faucet Then over the falls Niagara in a barrel Time doesn't, not really Exist to be selfish, always Giving a bit more, another Second turns in to a minute By yourself, in a barrel Going over the falls And right at the edge Toes over the top Feet in the air Head over heels You look at your watch Tickity, tickity-tock, tock Hippity, hop, hop Right over, toes in the box With a roar, a tear Coming together Tears, not for pain Like a band on a watch Pinned to keep place Just in case you fall In love, hippity-hop So when your feet reach Touch the sky, tickity, top You can check the time So know how far you fall Tickity, tippity-tip top Check the wrist watch Toes in the block Skipping rope Keeping time All of the above Inner chyld, tock, tock Beautifully in time Perfectly aligned Inside your mind Playing hopscotch Little girls' games Over the top Clippity, tock Tick, tock
