Clockwise to Deadline Songtext
von Tankard

Clockwise to deadline!
Life′s worthwhile - don't waste
Clockwise to the deadline!
Enjoy its sweet taste
Clockwise to deadline!
Time′s ticking 'til death
Clockwise to the deadline!
Until your last breath, 'til your last breath

Born into this life
With no choice but to play our role
Bound to set the sights
On our end, the final goal

Final goal
Play your role

In old age time is running
At such a frightening pace
The years resemble minutes
Clinging to your face


Clockwise to deadline!
Life′s worthwhile - don′t waste
Clockwise to the deadline!
Enjoy its sweet taste
Clockwise to deadline!
Time's ticking ′til death
Clockwise to the deadline!
Until your last breath, 'til your last breath

Every single day
Reminds us of mortality
Friends may pass away
From routine yet we cannot flee

Cannot flee
Can′t you see?

At last you might discover
That your plans turned to dust
So give your life a meaning
Cause your deeds will last

Clockwise to deadline!
Life's worthwhile - don′t waste
Clockwise to the deadline!
Enjoy its sweet taste
Clockwise to deadline!
Time's ticking 'til death
Clockwise to the deadline!
Until your last breath, ′til your last breath


In old age time is running
At such a frightening pace
The years resemble minutes
Clinging to your face

Clockwise to deadline!
Life′s worthwhile - don't waste
Clockwise to the deadline!
Enjoy its sweet taste
Clockwise to deadline!
Time′s ticking 'til death
Clockwise to the deadline!
Until your last breath, ′til your last breath
