Tick tock, tick tock
The clock doesn't stop
Time still stands
Rabbits still hopThey bounce through the glades
Bound through the grass
Escaping the day
But they won't be the lastThe tortoise push hard
Braving the sun
They push all the way
They run and they runAnd each day they struggle
They struggle this way
They fight off the sleep
Refusing to layAs the rabbit sits sleepy
Masked in his pride
Filled to the brim
Sloth at high tideAs the tortoise sped fastly
Alone on the road
Through time found the finish
Sought gloat like the toadHis chest puffed with ego
Eyes beamed so bright
He shouted his victory
Partied all through the nightBut the hare saw sadness
His depression sought nigh
In his sorrow stopped breathing
His last breath was a sighDo not fall to your vice
To naught with your sin
As all wills to conquer
With patience you'll win
