A New Year 2010: Keeping Time

Keeping time on New Years eve the clock counts out the even beat,

Tic Toc, Tic Toc, on your feet, Tic toc, tic toc, on your feet.

We dance and turn, and sway and yearn, for time gone past,
The new to last.

Tic toc, tic toc,

Tic toc, tic toc,
The hands on the clock won't lie.
Tic toc, tic toc,

The hands are saying goodby,
The year is passing,
Time to die.

It won't last, the minutes count the hours that fly,
Tic, toc, tic toc,
The hour approaches, the dancers stop, the time has come
To set the clock.

Tic toc, tic toc, let the dance begin,
It is now 2010.
