Beat The Clock (Album Version) - The Mccoys

作词：R. Gottehrer/J. Stroll

作曲：R. Gottehrer/J. Stroll

Beat the clock Try to make it stop

Before time can draw the line

And cut you down to her size

Beat the clock Try to make it stop

Tell me how long will it take

Before you finally realize

That the carnival is over

And you＇ve seen much better days

You have wasted too much time

Into many different plays

You deny the possibility

Of growing old

You are filled with false humility

You＇re much too bold

Beat the clock Try to make it stop

Before time can draw the line

And cut you down to her size

Beat the clock Try to make it stop

Tell me how long will it take

Before you finally realize

That you＇re in this game same as me

Although you think you＇re not

When you try to rise above it all

You get just what you got

It seems to me you＇re slipping

You seem slightly unnerved

When you finally see yourself

You get what you deserve

Beat the clock Try to make it stop

Before time can draw the line

And cut you down to her size

Beat the clock Try to make it stop

Tell me how long will it take

Before you finally realize

That the carnival is over

And you＇ve seen much better days

You have wasted too much time

Into many different plays

You deny the possibility

Of growing old

You are filled with false humility
