Stop the Clock
im running out of time, and i have to stop the clock, im standing on a roof, but im sitting on the dock, i know i'll lose myself, now i have to find my flock, i do know how to scream, but i dont know how to talk. people try to steal my dreams, now i have to change the lock, i do know how to mimic, but i dont know how to mock, i am hard as a feather, but im soft just like a rock, im running like a cheetah, and im fighting like a cock. my hair is green as money, and my skin is white as chalk, i do know how to creep, but i dont know how to stalk, i slip on like a glove, and i come off like a sock, im criminally smart, but that shouldnt be a shock. i do know how to tap, but i dont know how to knock, i wish i could give love, but right now im out of stock, im square just like a ball, and im round just like a block, im majestic like a horse, and im free just like a hawk.
