[Intro]
\nWhat’s that sound
\n(Look around)
\nTick, tick, ticking
\n(Ummmm…)
\nTicking
\n(Clock or time bomb)
\n[Instrumental, Guitar Solo]<\/p>\n

[Verse 1]
\nCan you talk
\n(Beyond a squawk)
\nShove off (the dock)
\nWalk the walk<\/p>\n

[Bridge]
\n[Instrumental, Synth Solo]
\nWhat’s that sound
\n(Look around)
\nTick, tick, ticking
\n(Ummmm…)
\n[Instrumental, Guitar, Piano, Bass, Percussion]<\/p>\n

[Chorus]
\nTick, tick, ticking
\n(Ummmm…)
\nTicking
\n(Clock or time bomb)
\nIs your life… coming undone?
\n[Instrumental, Guitar Solo]<\/p>\n

[Instrumental, Percussion Solo, Drum Solo]<\/p>\n

[Verse 2]
\nWhat do you have to say
\n(Anyway)
\nSay wordless (blurbs)
\nOh, so absurd<\/p>\n

[Bridge]
\n[Instrumental, Synth Solo]
\nWhat’s that sound
\n(Look around)
\nTick, tick, ticking
\n(Ummmm…)
\n[Instrumental, Guitar, Piano, Bass, Percussion]<\/p>\n

[Chorus]
\nTick, tick, ticking
\n(Ummmm…)
\nTicking
\n(Clock or time bomb)
\nIs your life… coming undone?
\n[Instrumental, Guitar Solo]<\/p>\n

[Outro]
\n[Instrumental, Synth Solo]
\nHave you found
\n(What’s that sound?)
\n[Instrumental, Percussion Solo, Drum Solo]
\nThat sound
\n(Astound)
\nTick, tick, ticking
\n(Clock)
\nStop!<\/p>\n
