Clock Goes Round Lyrics - Kirsty Maccoll

The clock goes round and round 

And I get so tired of this old town 

But I still hang around though I know that there's nothing to do 

Seems every monday morning 

I'm late for work, I get another warning 

I don't think I'd stay around here if it wasn't for you 

All the friends I had at school 

Went their separate ways 

Some I don't miss, some I do 

But when I see them we've got nothing to say 

Every weekday goes so slow 

Weekends go too fast 

Must make up my mind to go 

Before another year goes past 

The clock goes round and round 

And I get so tired of this old town 

But I still hang around though I know that there's nothing to do 

Seems every monday morning 

I'm late for work, I get another warning 

And I don't think I'd stay around here if it wasn't for you 

Same old faces every night 

Every day it rains 

Repetition drives me crazy 

I just can't stand it all over again 

The clock goes round and round 

And I get so tired of this old town 

But I still hang around though I know that there's nothing to do 

I'm saving my cash to get out of here 

You can come too 

You don't get me down like the others do 

Seems to me I wake up bored 

Seven days a week 

I need a chance to speak my mind 

Before I've got no mind to speak 

Can't believe the friends I've seen 

Think they're doing fine 

It's not enough for me 

And I know that I'm just wasting time 

Because the clock goes round and round 

And I get so tired of this old town 

But I still hang around though I know that there's nothing to do 

Seems every monday morning 

I'm late for work, I get another warning 

I don't think I'd stay around here if it wasn't for you
