Tic, Toc


Time is ticking.

Tic, Toc

Are you even listening?

Tic, Toc

Be honest with yourself.

Are you even trying?

Tic, Toc

There's no need for lying.

Tic, Toc

That's what I thought!

Silence.

Tic, Toc

Do you hear it now?

Tic, Toc

Come on now!

This is for your own good.

Tic, Toc

You really should!

Tic, Toc

Come on it's getting late.

Here it comes...

Tic, Toc

With a lump of sums

Tic, Toc

Your time has come.

Knock, Knock
