Four O Clock
Everyone has his four o’clock there is no doubt about that
Everyone has his four o’ clock even if he wears a cowboy’s hat
Everyone has his four o’ clock even if he roams around in a bureaucrat’s felt hat
Everyone has his four o’ clock so don’t rejoice when they remove the giant’s hat
Who will be next? the light is shining up and down the bend
It is searching for their secret sins and I am bound to win
Everyone has his four o clock so clean up your dirty act
Every day he sits under the big oak tree mocking strangers, friends and family
Bragging and boasting, coughing and spitting because he has a lot of money
He ridicules the poor and forces the aliens through the doors
He makes up a lot of ridiculous stories about the soaring economy
When his countrymen and women are homeless and his people are starving to death
He owns twenty percent of the world and half of the collaterals offshore
Nobody else can enter through the door because of the old boar’s sonar
But thanks to mother earth for using the big key to open the iron door
So that water can once more flow through the blocked shores
God bless you my friend the power of God is with you for your obedience to the end
Everyone has his four o clock and you cannot walk your actions back
Be careful of what you do for the all seeing eyes are watching you
Today for me, tomorrow for you is not just a mere karma it is the perfect manner
I always try to do what is proper without creating much disorder
But I am tired of the evil and wickedness around me mankind lack principle and morality
They make up combustible stories to manipulate the market and surge their political power, no one is a fool
Everyone has his four-o’clock be contented with what you have got
I have covered the entire globe in three hours to welcome the autumn showers
Many have met me at home and in Europe where I am home grown
Some try to woo me to give them a better loan
So that they can stuff it in their greedy jawbones
I have read through all of them but was not impressed with their beating side drums
I can see it coming everyone will have his four o' clock
I have made silly mistakes in the past and I have had my four o' clock too
But God prevented me from falling through because he has a plan for me and you
Everyone has his four o' clock so start clean out the dirty shops
Organize the bottles on the shelves so that you don’t have to embarrassed yourselves
Wash the bottles through and through and sell those that are not beneficial to me and you
Many nations has had their four o clock, there is no food in many houses or shops
They were once rich and have much money but they abuse their power and shame everybody
Becareful of how you treat others there is no curry favors
Everyone has his four o’ clock so get ready to leave the bloc
You have been arguing for too long over the imminent world order
Your loose tongues will pull out the hidden guns and send them on the run
Anyone who defies the order will be met with brimstone and fire
Seal your loose lips and prepare for the eternal bliss
What is your four o’ clock think seriously about that.
