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
