Tick Tick Tick Lyrics
Wait forever for this
Tick, tick, tick, tick
Legs have fallen asleep
Tick, tick, tick, tick
Persevering under cover of permafrost
Nervous and bashful and sick, sick, sick
Trying to stifle a cough
Tick, tick, tick, tick
Buried under the house
Tick, tick, tick, tick
Setting fire to a draft of the flow chart
Eating pages of the mission statement
Waking up from fitful dreams with
A blood curdling scream
Heart rate down to a crawl
Tick, tick, tick, tick
Empty but for one thought
Tick, tick, tick, tick
The eyes move first and then the mandibles
Beginning slowly then quick, quick, quick
Getting closer with each
Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick
Getting closer with each
Tick, tick, tick, tick
Getting closer with each
Tick, tick, tick, tick
Getting, closer, with, each
Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick
Tick, tick, tick, tick
Legs have fallen asleep
Tick, tick, tick, tick
Persevering under cover of permafrost
Nervous and bashful and sick, sick, sick
Tick, tick, tick, tick
Buried under the house
Tick, tick, tick, tick
Eating pages of the mission statement
Waking up from fitful dreams with
A blood curdling scream
Tick, tick, tick, tick
Empty but for one thought
Tick, tick, tick, tick
The eyes move first and then the mandibles
Beginning slowly then quick, quick, quick
Getting closer with each
Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick
Tick, tick, tick, tick
Getting closer with each
Tick, tick, tick, tick
Getting, closer, with, each
Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick
