letra de the nick of time - tom chapin

kids! come on down for dinner
your dinner’s getting cold
come on now, it’s time to eat
do as you’re told
kids! hurry up! shake a leg!
step on it! look alive!
kids, come on, i mean it;
i’m gonna count to five
one… two… three… four…

in the nick, nick, nick
in the nick of time
that’s when kids arrive
not one, not two, not three, not four
but in the nick of time on five

kids! come on down, there’s company
aunt bess and uncle hugh
on their way to delaware
and they’re just passing through
kids! they’re in a hurry;
they do not have all day
kids, come on, i mean it
you want me to count? o.k.!
onе…
i know they’ll be thrilled to see you
two…
you won’t bеlieve how they’ve grown
three…
maybe their door is shut
four…
in the nick, nick, nick
in the nick of time
that’s when kids arrive
not one, not two, not three, not four
but in the nick of time on five

kids! who’s been using crayons
and writing on the wall?
in the kitchen? in the bathroom?
in the bas-m-nt? in the hall?
kids! i want whoever did it
to get down here on the double
and if i have to count
you’re in twice as much trouble…
one…
(go on down, you know you did it.)
two…
(yeah, but it was your idea.)
three…
(was not. get down there.)
four…
(let’s… let’s say a robber did it.)
four and a half…
(robbers don’t use crayons, stupid! let’s go.)

in the nick, nick, nick
in the nick of time
that’s when kids arrive
not one, not two, not three, not four
but in the nick of time on five
kids! come on down for ice cream
i’ve got chocolate chip for you
and if you’re here by the count of five
you can have a cookie too
one…

in the nick, nick, nick
in the nick of time
that’s when kids arrive
not one, not two, not three, not four
but in the nick of time on five

and except when it comes to ice cream
and other kinds of fun
in the nick, nick, nick
in the nick of time
the nick of time becomes… one!
