The Original Broadway Cast
if we could only stop the old town clock from seventeen
Select language to translate this lyric
If we only could stop the old town clock
So it couldn't go tick
And it couldn't go tock
Oh the mayor would bellow and the town would rock
But we'd have a wonderful time
If we busted its chimes it might be wrong
But it couldn't go ding
And it couldn't go dong
Oh the party'd be going the whole night long
And we'd have a wonderful time
Without the clock tonight would be
Just as smooth as silk
âCause nobody'd know what time it was
Til the milkman brought the milk
If we only could paint his face all green
So he couldn't be heard
And he couldn't be seen
And you couldn't tell seven from six-fifteen
But we'd have a wonderful
Oh what a wonderful
We'd have a wonderful time
