Clock

 

Chronos, clock time: punch it! punch in, punch out.

At the car wash before the next tick punch in 

at the car wash the time clock waits 

Wait a tick, don’t wait a tick: punch in

At the car wash after the next tick punch out 

at the car wash the time clock waits 

don’t wait, wait — punch it, punch out 

in between wipe off the cars as the track nudges them into freedom or you stand back as some fool drives clear 

Kairos: in the fullness of time the world is born 

in the fullness of time the child is born 

in the fullness of time a man waits at the altar 

At last his bride appears 

where have you been you are right on time
