Verse 2
[Aceyalone]
Lay my days of my life in front of you
Come on
sure that you are certain
That it will be worth the energy
step in the foyer
Don't you bother knocking
I'm seeing through you faultiness
with saltiness
The ghetto taught me this
I spend my life for this
Counting down the days boy
Time keeper for the Reaper,
the family heirloom
Like staring at my grandfather
Every hour on the hour,
and yell out at the moon
You can't escape the master time,
no one is immune
The hands of time will grab you
when the moments opportune
Verse 4
What a wonderful work of art
Well I usually wear my sundial
but it don't work when it's
dark
(don't work when it's dark)
No electric parts spark as
mechanical as he is
He'll kindly say just wind me and then
I flow about the way
He never has nothing to say,
he just sits there on display
one inside the cabaret
Timekeeper for the Reaper,
what a pretty price to pay
Chorus
Verse 5
I'm a Grandfather clokin'
Everything you do,
I'm seeing through your masquerade
At midnight you will hear the serenade
and don't you be afraid
It's like clock work orange lemon
Tick- tock
The pendulum is swinging and it
Tick- tock
Verse 6
coo- coo clock
that would bother my Grandfather clock
Never gave it no rest so I flew
over the top of the nest
I ask him to resign
He was never on time, one hour behind
At ten, he stuck at nine
cause I murdered that machine
If you ever beat the clock you know
exactly what I mean
(exactly what I mean)
I hold my Grandfather clock in high esteem
My alarm clock screams cause he
knows how long it takes me
And they both race against
time to see who will be
the first to wake me
my alarm clock was broke
And my Grandfather clock was
staring right down my throat
and he told and I quote:
"If you ever race against me, you
will surely come up short,"
Timex, your Rolex or your Swatch
Your Fossil, Casio, Quartz,
your diamond studded watch,"
long you stay alive
I'ma tap you on you shoulder
at eleven fifty- five"
When the time arrives and
you'll have your five minutes of funk
I said my final salutations as I
stepped amongst the monks
I stodd like he should
And I tried to reason with him and
I tried knocking on wood
How did you like the song?
