[00:12.39]There's no tick tock on your electric clock
[00:18.22]But still your life runs down
[00:24.54]There's no tick tock on your electric clock
[00:30.81]But still your life runs down
[00:49.52]I'm halfway to heaven and my home in Forest Hills
[00:55.76]It's halfpast eleven and I've got some time to kill
[01:02.56]I missed my bus connection my train got in too late
[01:08.13]And I'm forced into reflection by this half hour wait
[01:15.42]Now I have been a straight man
[01:18.56]And I've played it by the rules
[01:21.46]I been a good man a good husband
[01:24.94]Yes a good old fashioned fool
[01:27.55]I have a fine wife and two children
[01:30.68]Just like everybody's got
[01:33.53]But after fifteen years of marriage
[01:37.02]The fires don't burn too hot
[01:42.73]You see someone's played a trick on me
[01:46.41]They set me up so perfectly
[01:49.36]The gave me their morality
[01:51.65]And then changed the rules they set for me
[01:55.69]Someone must be laughing now
[01:58.51]Though it don't seem funny somehow
[02:01.68]How the world's accepting now
[02:04.67]What they once would not allow
[02:07.04]Back in my younger days
[02:10.42]The world has changed
[02:13.55]In so many ways
[02:16.69]My mother once said to me
[02:19.91]So many years ago now
[02:23.62]Don't you touch those bad girls
[02:26.73]So I never had girls
[02:29.16]Until I had my Mary when we married
[02:34.96]My Mary then had my two sons
[02:38.24]My life as a lover it was already done
[02:40.97]It was over before it had really begun
[02:50.13]You see someone played a trick on me
[02:53.71]They sent this little girl to me
[02:56.77]She is my new secretary
[02:59.84]And she's something to see
[03:02.00]She's a nice girl
[03:04.93]But it's a young world
[03:08.48]And she lives her life so free
[03:11.47]And she sure gets thru to me
[03:23.72]She brings her pad into my office
[03:26.61]She wears a sweater and a skirt
[03:30.15]And somewhere deep inside of me
[03:33.26]Something starts to hurt
[03:35.46]She's wearing nothing underneath
[03:38.43]I can see what's there to see
[03:41.52]She smiles and says you wanted me
[03:44.55]I'd have to agree
[03:50.47]You know how much I want her
[03:53.11]And I know that I could have her
[03:56.11]I know I could I know she would
[03:59.24]Make love to me
[04:02.72]So wonderfully
[04:05.81]God d**n
[04:08.72]I'm one horny mixed up mixture of a man
[04:18.64]In my head all my life I've been a sinner
[04:24.58]And in my bed with just my wife I'm still a beginner
[04:30.44]But tomorrow night I'm taking
[04:35.00]That little girl out to dinner
[04:39.30]No tick tock

[04:45.85]Runs down
