Pounding out your name
 There's a hammer in my heart
 Here it comes again

 I hear a certain sound
 And it just won't go away
 It sends a message out
 What's it gonna be today?
 It wakes me up at dawn
 And as the day goes on
 I try to turn it off but the beat goes on

 It never lets me rest
 I can't get a minute's peace
 I lay awake in bed
 Wondering will it ever cease?
 It's like a top ten song
 I hear it all day long
 I try to turn it off but the beat goes on
