jimmy spicer – beat the clock lyrics

tick, tock
tick, tock
tick, tock
beat the clock

you gotta beat the clock
you gotta beat the clock
since i got a beat, i use my beat, let’s rock

now when you hear tick tock, you know it’s time to rock
with me telling def rhymes ’round the clock
from the stroke of midnight to the break of dawn
it was time for me to rock since the day i was born
at the time i was born i was not alone
there was my mama, the doctor and the microphone
and as a baby, i didn’t cry or whine
i only had time for nursery rhymes
and as a young boy i found time to rock
i would rock any other mc on his block
i didn’t care who, one or two
if the sucker came alone or he came with his crew
’cause i know it would be my time to rock
and that’s why i’m singing beat the clock

you gotta beat the clock
you gotta beat the clock
since i got a beat, i use my beat, let’s rock

tick, tock
tick, tock
tick, tock

now when you hear tick tock, you know it’s time to rock
with me telling def rhymes ’round the clock
you see i learned about girls as time went by
i met a sweet young one who caught my eye
well i asked her out on a date
she said “yeah but i can’t come home late
she said i gotta be home by two
i said if you know what’s good for you”
well we went to the party, the jam was packed
the time went [?] yes we lost track
we got back late, the clock said four
your father won’t even let me in the door
he said a lot of things, he put me in check
he said “next time i might break your neck
you love your disco, you love your rock
but soon you better learn how to beat the clock”

you gotta beat the clock
you gotta beat the clock
since i got a beat, now here’s my beat, let’s rock

tick, tock
beat to rock

now when you hear tick tock, you know it’s time to rock
with me telling def rhymes ’round the clock
you see i went to a party at ten o’clock
and when i got there i was ready to rock
but before i got started, i knew it was time
for a bottle of moet and girl you could be mine
i didn’t go far, i went to the bar
it looked like the one i had in my car
i was standing there at the bar
was a girl who looked like a superstar
she was sweet-a, pet-te-a, and on my agenda
i knew it was time for her to surrender
well, we started talking, a little time
before this girl was saying she was mine
for the moment was gone, i knew it was time
to rock that party with a rhyme on time
see once upon a time before the clock
somebody made a sundial outta rock
and that’s when recording time began
and since then man’s been clocking man
but you can’t turn back the hands of time
and time you can only go back in your mind
what you did can’t be undone
the clock keeps moving got you on the run
so you get yourself a job, you’re never late
’cause you love your hourly pay rate
so you wake up in the morning, brush your t–th and your hair
and then you let the soap hit you everywhere
so you put on your clothes, you’re out the door
racing to beat the clock once more
so you run to the station, the train’s on time
you run a little late and now you’re heading behind
you need to pay the rent and all your boss has to say
“don’t worry, it’s coming out of your pay”
but you can’t sit down, you never stop
because you know you’ve got to beat the clock

you gotta beat the clock
you gotta beat the clock
since i got a beat, now here’s my beat, let’s rock

beat the clock
tick, tock
tick, tock
tick, tock

now when you hear tick tock, you know it’s time to rock
with me telling def rhymes ’round the clock
now there’s a time to laugh, a time to cry
a time to live and a time to die
there’s a time when it’s sunny, there’s a time to be funny
there’s a time when you gotta make money
there’s a time when it’s cool, there’s a time when it’s warm
there’s a time for a thunderstorm
there’s a time to be chill, there’s a time when you’re ill
there’s a time (huh) when you gotta take a pill
there’s a time when you’re glad, there’s a time when you’re a sad
there’s a time when you might get mad
but you can’t get upset by what was said
because that’s the time you hold your head
you can’t let nothing be a mental block
’cause [?] now you’ve got to beat the clock

you gotta beat the clock
you gotta beat the clock
since i got a beat, now here’s my beat, let’s rock

tick
tick
tock
tock
tock
tock
tick tock
beat to rock
tick tock
tick tock
tick tock
beat the clock
tick tock
tick tock
tock
beat to rock
tick tock
tick tock
tick tock
beat the
tick tock
tick
tick tock
beat
tick tock
tick tock
beat
