The Trick

I want to tell you about what I’ve been thinking
I want to tell you while the city’s blinking
I want to tell you that time keeps ticking away
I know you think it’s kinda hard to believe it
But what I’ve got, oh I know you need it
I want to tell you that time keeps ticking away
T-ticking away, T-ticking away
You should know everything is under control
Before we get too low
Everything is under control
That’s just a trick I know
I’m gonna keep it like a tight little secret
I’m gonna hold it in my hand and squeeze it
I’m gonna keep it to myself
I’m calling the shots
I want to tell you about what I’ve been thinking
I want to tell you while the city’s blinking
I want to tell you that time keeps ticking away
T-ticking away, T-ticking away
You should know everything is under control
Before we get too low
Everything is under control
Going down where nobody knows
Before we get too low
Everything is under control
That’s just a trick I know
You should know everything is under control
Before we get too low
Going down where nobody knows
Before we get too low
Everything is under control
That’s just a trick I know
