He shriveled up and died from a broken heart
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Let me tell you 'bout a boy
Stretchin' on and on
Let me tell you 'bout a man
A tragic case, love kicked in his face
Reincarnated as a work of art
Now he's a happy guy
Because time keeps tickin' away
Now he's a happy guy
Time keeps on tickin' away
Because time keeps tickin' away
Time keeps on tickin' away
Because time keeps tickin' away
Unpredictable
Now he's a happy guy
He told them both the truth but they already knew
Now he's a happy guy
Well, it's a random turn
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Time keeps on tickin' away
With two very different girls knowin' life is short
On a game show wheel
But it stops somewhere
Because time keeps tickin' away
But it stops somewhere
An average spud, he was twice in love
Now he's a happy guy
He's got a brand new start
Time keeps on tickin' away
Now he's a happy guy
