Berlin Irving Second Fiddle (1939) The Song Of The Metronome Listen to the song of the metronome Tick - tock, tick - tock Simple little song of the metronome Tick - tock, tick - tock Listen to it telling you that life is sublime Life is sublime if you just take your time Just keep in time to the song of the metronome Listen to it tick-tock an even beat Tick - tock, tick - tock Beating out a warning to anxious feet Tick - tock, tick - tock Telling you a turtle had a race with a hare And at the finish the turtle was there Keeping in time with the song of the metronome Tick - tock, tick - tock You may be passed Tick - tock, tick - tock But you will last Better to be late than to not arrive Tick - tock, tick - tock Four o'clock is gone but you still have five Tick - tock, tick - tock When your day is over you'll be up on the shelf So, brother, don't run away with yourself Don't run away from the song of the metronome |
