By Daniel Rodriguez There is a clock On the coffee machine Telling you what time it is Relative to where you’ve got to be There is a clock On the console of your car Telling you what time it is Relative to how far you’ve got to go Before you’re there At your destination Could be a place of work, A place of rest, Or the watering hole But the question remains Well, what is time? It’s when the sun comes up The sun goes down The moon comes out And the people dance all around Even Einstein said, “Time is not a condition in which we live It’s a condition in which we think.” And we can change the ways we think So the question remains Well, what is time? It’s when the sun comes up The sun goes down The moon comes out And the people dance all around There is a clock On the coffee machine Telling you what time it is Relative to where you’ve got to be There is a clock On the console of your car Telling you what time it is Relative to how far you’ve got to go Before you’re there At your destination Could be a place of work, a place of rest, Or the watering hole But the question remains Well, what is time? It’s when the sun comes up The sun goes down The moon comes out, The people dance all around
