Thunder coming
Thunder coming
Thunder coming
Thunder coming
Thunder coming
Thunder coming
Thunder coming
Thunder coming
Thunder coming
Thunder coming
Thunder coming
Thunder coming
Thunder coming
Thunder coming
Thunder coming
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Tick tock, the ways
Tick tock, the ways of the city
Tick tock, the ways
Tick tock, the ways of the city
Well, Peter Price was a nice kid
With a pretty house and a pretty nice life
But Peter picked up pretty quick
On the ways of the city
There were cool characters standing at the corner
Cool cats with their hats pulled low
Big boasts about little adventures
And the ways of the city
Pretty soon
Pretty soon a plan popped up
And Peter had a chance to prove
That even he could measure up
To the ways of the city
Thunder is a-comin'
Thunder is a-comin'
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Tick tock, in the prison
Tick tock, tit for tat
Tick tock, unforgiven
Soo forgot
Tick tock, it's a game of
Waiting for the day when you can run away
Tick tock, no solution
No escape
Thunder coming
Thunder coming
So Saturday night, they met in the park
And Peter Price was pretty terrified
Best to wait till after dark
Said the ways of the city
Joking around as darkness descended
Wishing it all had already ended
Still they tried to pretend to know
The ways of the city
Pretty soon
Pretty soon the six of them stopped
And got on the bus to go downtown
Twelve o'clock, Jack was closing his shop
In the center of the city
Thunder coming
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Tick tock, in the prison
Tick tock, tit for tat
Tick tock, unforgiven
Soo forgot
Tick tock, it's a game of
Waiting for the day when you can run away
Tick tock, no solution
No escape
Thunder coming
Thunder coming
Thunder coming
Thunder coming
Thunder coming
Thunder coming
Thunder coming
Thunder coming
Thunder coming
Thunder coming
Thunder coming
Thunder coming
Thunder coming
What can you do when there is thunder?
Well, they found Jack near the back door
Keys in hand, hand in the kitty
When they attacked according to
The ways of the city
But the plan broke apart 'cause Jack had a gun
And Peter panicked pretty quick
Oh my God, what have I done?
Said the ways of the city
Oh my God, what have I done?
Said the ways of the city
The murder happened, the murder happened
In May, they caught him in October
They caught him in October
December, he was locked away
And Peter's life was over
The murder happened in May
They caught him in October
December, he was locked away
And Peter's life was over
Tick tock, the ways
Tick tock, the ways of the city
Tick tock, the ways
Tick tock, tick tock
Tick tock, tick tock
Tick tock, tick tock
Tick tock, tick tock
