Goodbye Little Alarm Clock

lyrics

Goodbye little alarm clock
You've given me great times
But lately time's been slipping away from you
Why you've given up on me
I don't know
Alarm clock don't be sour
Your losing all you power
It's your eleventh hour
Time to go

I got you when i was 10
Things were simpler then
You woke me up in time
For the early bird show
And later on that day
You woke me up okay
In time for Simon Townsend's Wonderworld

I slept a lot as kid
Oh alarm clock
All those things we did
Well you didn't do much
You just sat there making noise
And now thats what I do for a living

Goodbye little alarm clock
You've given me great times
But lately time's been slipping away from you
Why you've given up on me
I don't know
Alarm clock don't be sour
Your losing all you power
It's your eleventh hour
Time to go

And when my teenage years unfurled
When I brought home a girl
You sat and watch
And never judged me once
But no matter who it was
They came second because
Alarm clock it's always your face that I saw

I was pretty weird kid
They said I loved you and I did
But the can keep their skateboards
Cos you go backwards and forwards
Not unlike words like Glenelg or Boob

Goodbye little alarm clock, goodbye
How could I ever replace you
Maybe I should get one of those
Atomic Clocks that would suit me just well

Why you've given up on me
I don't know
Alarm clock don't be sour
Your losing all you power
It's your eleventh hour
Time to go
