Tick Of Time

The Kooks - 《Konk》

Oh honey please don't shed no tears

As long as I'm here

It's far too early in the morning

to be trying to call you

And far too early in the daytime

to be thinking about that

but I (but I) but I (but I) but I am

What did I do in a past life

Oh to deserve this

Yeah the way I make myself

He's far too innocent to be a part of

such a cruel world

And it is and it is and it is

And so I'll go yes I'll go

so I'll take that train and ride

Hoping I could rhyme her a rhyme

that might stop the tick of time

Get off this situation and feel fine

Get off this situation and feel fine

What did I do to deserve her love

I have to ask myself

When I am such a bad man

but only to her

(only to her only only to her)

Oh and so I'll go yes I'll go

so I'll take that train and ride

Oh and so I'll go yes I'll go

so I'll take that train and ride

Wishing hoping I could rhyme her a rhyme

that might stop the tick of time

Get off this situation and feel fine

Get off this situation and feel fine

All Over Town (hidden track)

Dear Sir

Did I see you fleeting?

I care for your heart

But not for it beating

You tried to put a frown on me

Fell me down

Your spreading bad things about me

All over town

But I'll show no frown

Because all over town

Yes all over town

There are people who would

Undermine you if they could

Don't let them in

What do you see

When you see me sir?

The very same thing that makes you bitter

See you say all these outrageous things

That's what you do

Yes but your no poet man

You just want everyone looking at you

So I'll show no frown

Because all over town

Yes all over this town

There are people who would

Undermine you if they could

Don't let them in

Oh all over town

Yes all over this town

There are people who would

Undermine me if they could

Won't let them in
