Tick Tack

Tick, tack!
Tick, tack!
Tick, tack!
The chant of a faithful wall clock
Yesterday, is gone
Today, has been born 
What do you, with your time?
It asks, with each stealth chime
As it ticks and tacks, in due time

So young fellow, think twice
But, think at once
For it will tick and tack, alway
Even if you take it's cells, away
