Clock Watching (Ellis) Copyright 2017 Ellisongs.
I should have known when I first walked in at nine O’clock that Monday morning, I nearly lost my eye out.
You looked cute in a pencil suit and the way you fold that foolscap paper, smiling at the bosses.
You know, I used a little muscle on the dumb machine as I saw you by the photocopier, I clocked you watching.
But, I’m falling for you.
You know I’m falling for you.
You did it again around twelve p.m. as you left your desk and ate a sandwich, silent with cups of coffee.
There’s a fantasy at the factory about watching women in the workplace. I clocked you watching.
But, I’m falling for you.
You know I’m falling for you.
I realised at five to five when the boss gave Friday’s wages early, fired as I punched the clock.
As the secretary tried to lecture me about making trouble in the workplace, I clocked you watching.
But, I’m falling for you.
You know I’m falling for you.
