I don't claim to have the answers

Hell I don't even have a plan

Trying to keep a roof over my family

And I just do the best I can

My little world can get me caught up

Some heavy things are going down



The clock is still ticking 

And we just keep dickin' around

The clock is still ticking

And we just keep dickin' around



You can't bear to read the paper

You can't stand the evening news

They always talk about some murder across town

Or ‘bout somebody getting used



But you see that…



The clock is still ticking

And we just keep dickin' around

The clock is still ticking

And we just keep dickin' around

Righteousness waits as we procrastinate 

The grim reaper's walking 

As were standing talking 

The clock is still ticking 

And we just keep dickin' around



With her eyes upon the heavens

We're going to cast the sinners down to hell

Later for rehabilitation

Why don't we build another prison cell?



The clock is still ticking

And we just keep dickin' around

Righteousness waits as we procrastinate

The grim reaper's walking

As we're standing talking
