What Time is It? by Malvina Reynolds

What Time is It? Lyrics

The birds don't know it's Sunday
They fly and sing and feed their young
The fish don't know it's Sunday
They never change their clothes
The bees don't know it's Sunday
They tote and store and go for more
The bees don't know it's Sunday
And neither does the rose

The grandpa clock it goes tick tock
It seems to know an awful lot
The calendars state the day and date
They're very seldom wrong
But the rabbit needs no dinner chime
And the ducks know when it's summer time
And any day is fine for play
And fine to sing along

The birds don't know it's Sunday
They fly and sing and feed their young
The fish don't know it's Sunday
They never change their clothes
The bees don't know it's Sunday
They tote and store and go for more
The bees don't know it's Sunday
And neither does the rose
