Tick...Tock...Tick...Tock
I'm so tired of that clock
30 ticks and 30 tocks
Another minute leaves the box
Yet my eyes stay open wide
I should throw that clock outside
I've often heard that time can fly
I just might test it by and by
For now I'll not give in to gloom
Instead I'll go to The Chat Room
Where all the nicest people gather
For if I can't sleep I'd really rather
Read the posts and laugh ... or cry
Then watch the night tick slowly by.
