๐ Lyrics
Tok tick, the clock is running
Tok tick, the clock is running
Tok tick, the clock is running
The children are all leaving school today
Mama said, "Don't worry, I'll be back one day"
The blue men in uniform smiled and waved goodbye
She was hiding the tears in her eyes
Threw it to myself
Threw it to myself
Roll up the history books, burn up the chairs
Set fire to anything, set fire to the air
They're hiding to begin and running at the end
Mama said, "You take your life in your hands"
Tok tick, the clock is running
Tok tick, tok tick
Taking your life, your life in your hands
But don't take your life in your hands like I did
I don't feel so bad and always look forward with hope
Forward and hope, that the children will always be there
Always be there (safer)
Always be there (safer)
Cancel the day (day), cancel the night (night)
Can't sell the day (day), can't sell the night
'Cause who could be watching, when she steals and runs away
Full of hysterical laughter, and say
Mama, mama
I've left school today
I hope I get to see you in that funny school far away
But those gentlemen in blue and those in grey
Say I'll never, ever see mama again
'Cause she took those lives in her hands
She took all those lives in her hands (the clock is running)
She took all those lives in her hands (the clock is running)
But let me wonder, what was there left in those hands?
Tok tick, tok tick
Tok tick, tok tick
Tok tick, tok tick
Tok tick, tok tick
Tok tick, the clock is running
Tok tick, the clock is running
The children are all leaving school today
Mama said, "Don't worry, I'll be back one day"
The blue men in uniform smiled and waved goodbye
She was hiding the tears in her eyes
Threw it to myself
Threw it to myself
Roll up the history books, burn up the chairs
Set fire to anything, set fire to the air
They're hiding to begin and running at the end
Mama said, "You take your life in your hands"
Tok tick, the clock is running
Tok tick, tok tick
Taking your life, your life in your hands
But don't take your life in your hands like I did
I don't feel so bad and always look forward with hope
Forward and hope, that the children will always be there
Always be there (safer)
Always be there (safer)
Cancel the day (day), cancel the night (night)
Can't sell the day (day), can't sell the night
'Cause who could be watching, when she steals and runs away
Full of hysterical laughter, and say
Mama, mama
I've left school today
I hope I get to see you in that funny school far away
But those gentlemen in blue and those in grey
Say I'll never, ever see mama again
'Cause she took those lives in her hands
She took all those lives in her hands (the clock is running)
She took all those lives in her hands (the clock is running)
But let me wonder, what was there left in those hands?
Tok tick, tok tick
Tok tick, tok tick
Tok tick, tok tick
Tok tick, tok tick
