Six O'Clock

Look to the right Look to the left Look down in front Take my first step Eyes on the clock Then up the block Something ain't right It's six o'clock Bus isn't here Isn't this great! Want that promotion Being late will raise the stakes Finally here Guess I'm sittin in the rear Out the window So dark outside Makes it challenging to remember pride Through traffic lights Lots and lots of ring tones Lit up LCD Screens This is something I could've lived without seeing 120 min Seems sooo long Wish I could nap So hard to relax I'll sit back, Throw on my MP3 Cant let this long journey get a hold of me Arrive to work Yep, I spilled coffee on my shirt Too late to fix Now it's the color of bricks Oh well. Seems to be a colorful day Don't think everything will go my way
