[Verse 1]
Woke up this morning to the frantic rhythm of the clock
And the ringin' bells are wakin' neighbors all over the block
It's a wakin' everybody to tell 'em it's time to rock, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
Well I hear a tick-tock-tick
I hear a tick-tock-tick (Let's rock)
Tick-tock-tick, tick-tock-tick
It's a clock tickin' rhythm, it's a-bringin' me out to rock (Rock it)
[Chorus]
Well, rock-rock-rock-rock
Let's rock-rock-rock-rock
Let's rock-rock-rock-rock
We're gonna rock-rock-rock-rock
Well, let's rock
[Verse 2]
I hear the clock tickin' rhythm a-tickin' thru all the doors
Yeah, a woman a-shoutin' and a man fallin' on the floor
They call it the tickin' rhythm and they're rockin' on out for more
[Pre-Chorus]
Well I hear a tick-tock-tick
I hear the tick-tock-tick (Let's rock)
Tick-tock-tick, I hear a tick-tock-tick
It's a clock tickin' rhythm, it's a-bringin' me out to rock (Rock it)
[Chorus]
Well, rock-rock-rock-rock
We gonna rock-rock-rock-rock
Let's rock-rock-rock-rock
We're gonna rock-rock-rock-rock
Well, let's rock
[Verse 3]
Well I'm sittin' home lonesome, I can hear the clock on the wall
I get all shook up to that rhythm of the tick tock call
It's a-callin' everybody, sayin' rock-rock-rock you all
Rock it
[Pre-Chorus]
Well I hear the tick-tock-tick
I hear the tick-tock-tick
I hear a tick-tock-tick
I hear the tick-tock-tick
It's a clock tickin' rhythm, it's a-bringin' me out to rock (Rock it)
[Chorus]
Well, rock-rock-rock-rock
Come on and rock-rock-rock-rock
Let's rock-rock-rock-rock
Come on and rock-rock-rock-rock
Well, let's rock
