We can plan
And we can pray
But in the end we ricochet
Can I bounce off you a while?
We can spend
And we can save
Try and catch the next big wave
Or wave it off
Hey would you let me cramp your style?
Oh my body clock is ticking
And I want to count my chickens
But the plan has hatched too quick
Still need to get things out my system
We should travel
Write a novel
Sell the screenplay to the devil
Try to do something worthwhile
We should work hard
We should work out
We can work this out
No doubt about it
Come on and let me see you smile
Oh my body clock is ticking
And I want to count my chickens
But the plan has hatched too quick
Still need to get things out my system
Recently it's double dutch
Tea leaves in a coffee cup
You know I love you so so much
But everybody's breaking up
In this city
It's sad to see
It worries me
How we can plan
And we can pray
But in the end we ricochet
Can I bounce off you a while?
We could fight
Or see the light
We could lighten up
And turn the lights down
Hey do you want to have my child?
Oh my body clock is ticking
And I want to count my chickens
But the plan has hatched too quick
Still need to get things out my system
