Think of the Time I Save – The Pajama Game lyrics

Hinesy:
I’m a time study man, and a time study man can’t waste time.
For a time study man to waste time,is a crime.
So i’m ruled by the tick tick tock.
And i live my life by the clock.
I live my life by the tick tick tock of the clock.

Ihen i go to sleep, I don’t undress.
That’s right, I sleep in all my clothes.
I must confess.
Sure it’s a strange way to behave.
And I will admit that the suit gets mussed and it gathers lint and it picks up dust,
but think of the time I save.

Girls:
Think of the time he saves.

Hines:
The alarm clock rings, it’s 6 AM.
And then right there in bed I shave.
That’s what I said. while I am still in bed, I shave.
And the lather drips and the bed gets wet and oh what a lousy shave I get,
But think of the time I save.

Girls:
Think of the time he saves.

Hines:
At breakfast time, I grab a bowl.
And in the bowl I drop an egg, and add some juice.
A poor excuse for what I crave.
And then I add some oatmeal too and it comes out tasting just like glue,
But think of the time I save.

Girls:
Think of the time he saves.
Tick tock, tick tock, tempus fugit.
Tick tock, tick tock time goes by.

Hines:
I’ll be sitting counting seconds til the day I die.
And when I do, I have a plan.
Before I’m dead, I’ll dig my grave.
That’s what I said. Before I’m dead I’ll dig my grave.
‘Cuz when St. Peter calls my name,
I know I’ll get there just the same but think of the time I’ll save.

Girls:
Think of the time he’ll save.
