Mary Had A Little Clock
Mary had a little clock that works in its own way,
Just another afternoon in May
Children playing birds were singing postmen said hello,
What if Mary wasn't late that day
Johnny was a lonely man who has not much to say
He's now on the roof to say goodbye
He was so in love with Mary when she was engaged,
Sadly he was not her fiance
So God I ask why today,
Are they not dear enough to you?
Did they not pray?
Is that how you work your way?
Now I'm so afraid
To some it was one fine day,
To them the very end of life well that's their fate
So that's how people come and go
What's gonna happen no one knows
Johnny took a breath and quietly he jumped off the roof
What if Mary wasn't late that day
So God I ask why today,
Sre they not dear enough to you?
Did they not pray?
Is that how you work your own way?
Now I'm so afraid
To some it was one fine day,
To them the very end of life well that's their fate
So that's how people come and go
What's gonna happen no one knows
So God I ask why today,
Well, she had everything she dreamt of yesterday
But now the happiness subside
Will she rest in peace in her own grave?
Bout' him I dare not say,
He landed on her head and broke her neck they say.
So that's how tragic life can be
Too bad that many still don't see
Mary had a little clock that works in its own way
Yet she never has another day
Just another afternoon in May
Children playing birds were singing postmen said hello,
What if Mary wasn't late that day
Johnny was a lonely man who has not much to say
He's now on the roof to say goodbye
He was so in love with Mary when she was engaged,
Sadly he was not her fiance
So God I ask why today,
Are they not dear enough to you?
Did they not pray?
Is that how you work your way?
Now I'm so afraid
To some it was one fine day,
To them the very end of life well that's their fate
So that's how people come and go
What's gonna happen no one knows
Johnny took a breath and quietly he jumped off the roof
What if Mary wasn't late that day
So God I ask why today,
Sre they not dear enough to you?
Did they not pray?
Is that how you work your own way?
Now I'm so afraid
To some it was one fine day,
To them the very end of life well that's their fate
So that's how people come and go
What's gonna happen no one knows
So God I ask why today,
Well, she had everything she dreamt of yesterday
But now the happiness subside
Will she rest in peace in her own grave?
Bout' him I dare not say,
He landed on her head and broke her neck they say.
So that's how tragic life can be
Too bad that many still don't see
Mary had a little clock that works in its own way
Yet she never has another day
