If all this time is orchestrated
I think
that the conductor's been impersonated
by someone with a warped sense of humour.

c'mon
on time, early sometime late as
if that alarm clock cannot wait
what's the rush?

sleep in and why not?

I'm already worn to a frazzle
stooped and
lost a bit of that old razzle dazzle,
but as long as the music goes on
whoever the conductor may be
She will dance in time with me
and that's good enough.
