Brandon Flowers - The Clock Was Tickin Lyrics


The teacher had you write a letter,
You were eight years old
About the man that you'd become
And the positions you'd hold
But this was long before you and Jackie Geronimo
Met in the Prelude Park at midnight
Now when it came to bells and whistles,
Jackie did not lack
And when she kissed you on the kisser,
Boy, you kissed her back
Now you tell her that you love her
And she cuts you slack
When you drink with your buddies on the weekend

And the weeks fly by and the years roll on
You spend your whole life dropping nickels in the bucket,
wakin' up at dawn
And while Jackie bestowed the joys of fingerlickin'
The clock up on the wall was tickin'

You got yourself a job cleaning hospital floors
But Jackie had a baby, then she had five more
They'd pay you just enough
To drag your ass to the store
To buy bread, milk and Better Homes & Gardens
Jackie flips the pages and she dreams little dreams
A cottage in the country built
With real wood beams
There's a baby in the bedroom, he's starting to scream
She holds him though he probably won't remember it

And the weeks fly by and the years roll on
Sometimes dreams are all you got to keep you going
when the day gets long
And you gave up so many just to make a livin'
That clock up on the wall was tickin'

Now the kids are all grateful
When they left the nest
And Jackie wasn't perfect but she did her best
You seize the opportunity to get you some rest
But you can't sleep on account of screaming grandkids

The golden years are meant
To leave a gleam in your eye
You're starting to discover
It's a great big lie
They'll work you like a dog til you quit or you die
But you can't quit
Cause Jackie needs the benefits

And the weeks fly by and the years roll on
They say patience is a virtue but the doctor says
she don't have long
You stood up and tried your damndest not to listen
But that clock up on the wall was tickin'

When they told you to clear the room,
Tha's when it hit you
You watched as the caravan
Took your sweetheart away
The arguments and fights and money troubles
Seem so worthless
As the kids throw
Yellow roses on her grave

And the weeks fly by and the years roll on
The house is quiet now and everything inside it seems
to know she's gone
There's a picture of you both
Sixteen years old just kissing
And that clock up on the wall was tickin'

You always thought she had a chance
And it was somewhere hidden
Now you've come to the conclusion that she never did
Not a chance, that is
