The Clock Is Tickin Lyrics - Brand New - Salt N Pepa

Chorus: 

Hurry up and change your mind 

Don't let love make you blind 

Well now don't read this sign 

The clock is tickin' and you're out of time 

And you're out of time 

Man: You are so fat 

Girl: I'm not 

Man: And stupid, and baby 

I don't know why I put up with you 

Girl: Why you talk to me like that 

Man: Get out of here 

Get out of my face 

Sandra "Pepa" Denton: 

He puts you down, he calls you dumb, he calls you fat 

You don't have to go out like that 

It's disrespect, and you better put him in check 

Or you'll look back on his years with regret 

No self-esteem, that's why you cry 

Can't live without him, hmmm, that's a lie 

You sorry, bitter, a bad excuse for a human being 

You know what I mean 

Dear heart, make a new start, brand new 

Can't nobody love you if you don't love you 

Get wise, recognize, read the signs 

Hurry up, 'cause we're runnin' out of time 

Chorus 

Cheryl "Salt" James: 

He don't know how to treat you right 

So you better learn how to treat yourself someday 

You say he drinks and he beats you, right 

He's gonna beat you to death so get away 

You got kids, you got bills, you got no skills 

You wanna take pills 

All I can say is you can't stay, you better pray 

God'll make the way, hey 

Don't teach your son to grow up and beat girls 

You gotta show your daughter there's better in this world 

Than this, worth a twist, break the chain 

Use your brain and say kid stop the pain 

Chorus 

Andrew Hellier: 

I say right, you say left 

I say no, you say yes 

We don't see eye-to-eye 

'cause you keep tellin' lies 

You better recognize, the clock is tickin' 

And you're out of time 

Sandra "Pepa" Denton & Cheryl "Salt" James: 

Do you know what time it is (Tell me, do you know) 

Do you know what time it is (Tell me, do you know) 

Do you know what time it is (Tell me, do you know) 

Do you know what time it is (Baby, do you know) 

Chorus 

Cheryl "Salt" James: 

She's just usin' you for your dough, your green, your loot 

You need to give her the boot 

She tells everybody you're a trip 

Or the shh, and you in love, you better get a grip 

You're a nice guy but you don't know the deal 

You think it's real but the witch don't feel 

If you just want kids, that's cool and that's fine 

But get rid of her quick, or you'll be out of time 

Chorus (2x) 

Sandra "Pepa" Denton: 

Do you know what time it is (8x) 

Andrew Hellier: 

The click is tickin' (4x) 

And you're out of time 

Then you're out of time
