I tell you the time, day in and day out If I was not here then you would shout “I’m late! I'm late!” Oh, what a shame That you were late and I'm to blame I'm the reason you're on time to work And your boss doesn't think that you're a **** Many take my presence for granted Like many do not know the world is slanted They think it's common knowledge that The clock is always there But when I break It's too late Better say your prayers
