Put the Clock on Stall
Hot, young chick thinkin' about a cool and tall
And, in a blissful state, afraid of nothing at all
Potent horizons blurred the writing on the wall
Wish I may, can I please, put the clock on stall
============================
No need of formalities, just give the girl a call
Nary a thought about the ghosts down the hall
Took my chances playing catch me if I fall
Wish I may, can I please, put the clock on stall
===================================
Hastily made promises in a gown without a ball
Family tree in absentee that cast a silent pall
Union of loneliness, dark curtain would befall
Wish I may, can I please, put the clock on stall
===================================
Designs that drew blood hide from my recall
Catch a thief without remorse, she sips a cup of gall
But, the past is in arrears, gone in the long haul
Wish I may, can I please, put the clock on stall
===================================
Now with the years, I'm feelin' kinda small
Cold winds approaching, feel the coming squall
Play recast sans shadows past in life's final brawl
Wish I may, can I please, put the clock on stall
===================================
