Halfway To Heaven - Harry Chapin[00:00:00]

There's no tick tock on your electric clock[00:00:12]

But still your life runs down[00:00:18]

There's no tick tock on your electric clock[00:00:24]

But still your life runs down[00:00:30]

I'm halfway to heaven and my home in Forest Hills[00:00:49]

It's halfpast eleven[00:00:55]

I've got some time to kill[00:00:59]

I missed my bus connection my train got in too late[00:01:02]

And I'm forced into reflection by this half hour wait[00:01:08]

Now I have been a straight man and I've played it by the rules[00:01:15]

I been a good man a good husband a good old fashioned fool[00:01:21]

I have a fine wife and two children just like everybody's got[00:01:27]

But after fifteen years of marriage the fires don't burn too hot[00:01:33]

Ahhhh someone played a trick on me[00:01:42]

They set me up so perfectly[00:01:46]

They Gave me their morality[00:01:49]

And then changed the rules they set for me[00:01:51]

Someone must be laughing now[00:01:55]

Though it don't seem funny somehow[00:01:58]

How the world's accepting now[00:02:01]

What they once would not allow[00:02:04]

Back in my younger days[00:02:07]

The world has changed in so many ways[00:02:10]

My mother once said to me so many years ago now[00:02:17]

Don't you touch those bad girls so I never had girls[00:02:23]

Until I had my Mary when we married[00:02:29]

My Mary then had my two sons[00:02:35]

My life as a lover was already done[00:02:38]

It was over before it had really begun[00:02:41]

Ahhhh someone played a trick on me[00:02:50]

They sent this little girl to me[00:02:53]

She is my new secretary[00:02:56]

And she's something to see[00:02:58]

Yeah She's a nice girl but it's a young world[00:03:02]

And she lives her life so free and she sure gets through to me[00:03:08]

She brings her pad into my office she wears a sweater and a skirt[00:03:23]

And somewhere deep inside of me something starts to hurt[00:03:30]

She's wearing nothing underneath [00:03:35]

I can see what's there to see[00:03:38]

She smiles and says "You wanted me " I'd have to agree[00:03:41]

You know how much I want her[00:03:50]

And I know that I could have her[00:03:53]

I know I could I know she would[00:03:56]

Make love to me so wonderfully[00:03:59]

God damn I'm one crazy mixed up mixture of a man[00:04:06]

In my head all my life I've been a sinner[00:04:18]

And in my bed with just my wife I'm still a beginner[00:04:24]

But tomorrow night I'm taking that little girl out to dinner [00:04:30]

There's no tick tock on your electric clock[00:05:01]

But still your life runs down[00:05:07]

There's no no no no tick tock[00:05:13]

But still your life runs down[00:05:19]

Yes there's no no no no no no[00:05:25]

I was I was on still your life runs down[00:05:29]

I was[00:05:38]
