Playtime Is Over

I heard a whisper in a playground Night owl said, keep the row down Keep a silence, don't shout They'll send a man round to tear your mouth out Big words and bigger stories And favorite threats and subtle warnings Tell me playtime is over They built a grandstand to make a stand now You have your shoot-out, then you've got to sweat it out No time to shilly-shally now The clock banks that you get paid by the hour Playtime is over (playtime is over) Playtime is over (playtime is over) Playtime is over How long can you play this game And say you're not insane? Do the same as yesterday We've made it all today With your feet on the running blocks And both eyes on the clock Because the game's been on the floor now But someone's got to be the boss Playtime is over (playtime is over) Playtime is over (playtime is over) Playtime is over (playtime is over) It's over It's over It's over It's over It's over It's over
