Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Clock on the wall
keeps ticking [C]away
[G]I've got to go,
but I'd love [C]to stay

[Verse 2]
Yo I've [C]been walkin' [G]round
in the streets of these cities
I've flipped a few whiskies,
I've rode a few kitties
I made a few dollars,
I bought a few bottles
I popped a few collars then
[C]rocked a few models
I've [G]pushed a few buttons,
left all you cats guessing
It's ? Garcia, bia, [C]who you stressin'
[G]I'm ?, bout to drop blessings
I had to kill Whitey,
word to the almighty
I'm tailor- made and
I'm custom- fitted
Can't none of y'all cats do [C]it like I did it
I [G]might come sing it, I might come spit it
And if you want to take it,
[C]try to come get it
[G]You'll get your wig splitted, get
your grill busted
I'm crazy like the [C]Beastie

[Verse 3]
Boys were still dusted
[G]Clock on the wall keeps ticking away
A tick [C]tock and you don't stop
I've got [G]to go, but I'd love to stay
A tock tick and you [C]don't quit, hit it
Clock [G]on the wall keeps ticking away
A tick tock and you [C]don't stop
I've got [G]to go, but I'd love to stay
A tock [C]tick and you don't quit, hit it

[Verse 4]
Yo, off the dummy's instru[G]mental,
I spit heavy metal
Never been from the [Bb]ghetto,
keep [C]it mad funda[F]mental
Be[G]came a night devil, ? rebel
Add some bass, add some treble,
pump up my level
Cause mad motherfuckers done
bit my steeze
And the game has got [Bb]biters
like [C]dogs got [F]fleas
An[G]d all you dick riders get
up off your knees
Drinkers turn your bottles up,
smokers [C]burn your trees
Learn your A be
[G]see's, mind your P's and Q's
Fuck around, get shot up,
wind up on the news
Yo, it's ? Garcia,
he a singin' the blues
Rockin' shiney [C]jewels and
some brand new shoes
I [G]love my mama cause
she ain't raised no fools
My golden rule is stay holdin' the tool
[C]What you doi[G]ng to your people's
comes back on you
Don't know when the grim [C]reaper
wants to rendezvous

[Verse 5]
It's like
[G]Clock on the wall keeps ticking away
A tick [C]tock and you don't stop
I've got [G]to go, but I'd love to stay
A tock [C]tick and you don't quit, hit it
Clock [G]on the wall keeps ticking away
A tick tock and you [C]don't stop
I've got [G]to go, but I'd love to stay
A tock [C]tick and you don't quit, hit it

[Verse 6]
I hear [C]mad mother[G]fuckers say
they're ready to die
Acting like they don't [C]care
but I swear they [F]lie
Tell you [G]now if they had to look
death in the eye
They beg and they plead and they
scream and they cry
When the reaper calls, you all will fall
You all will fall when the reaper calls
When the reaper calls, you all will fall
You all will fall when the [C]reaper calls
I hear a lot of mother[G]fuckers
say they down for the kill
Most of them are just clowns
but they swear they will
Spend a lot of time being down,
keepin' it real
But I pay more at[C]tention to
the ones that keep [F]still
You [G]all will [C]fall when [G]the reaper calls
When the reaper calls, you all will [C]fall
You [G]all will [C]fall when [G]the reaper calls
When the reaper call[C]s, you all will fall

[Verse 7]
[G]Clock on the wall keeps ticking away
A tick [C]tock and you don't stop
I've got [G]to go, but I'd love to stay
A tock tick and you [C]don't quit, hit it
Clock [G]on the wall keeps ticking away
A tick tock and you [C]don't stop
[G]I've got to go, but I'd love to stay
A tock [C]tick and you don't quit, hit it
