The clocks were asleep and
Asleep's how we found them
We found them and wound them again
But they didn't last us 'til morning,
A warning-
That you never should force
Mechanical things
They're not meant for hardship
They'll snap if you
Tighten and wind them
And pry them and try

Just stop right now
Now's the time to let go
And stop right now
Now's the time to break free

The parakeet sitting inside
The gazebo was sighing though
She shouldn't have known how to do
Anything except tweet, tweet, tweet
The gentleman giving
The power presentation
Felt the bayonet scar on his shoulder re-open,
A warm trickle of blood through his
Fresh-pressed shirt

So stop right now
Now's the time to let go
And stop right now
Now's the time to break free
Oh, oh, free
How much do you really know you?
