Songs mentioning specific times

[Steel Icarus]

Famously creepy George Formby number:

"At eight o'clock a girl she wakes,
At five past eight a bath she takes
At ten past eight my ladder breaks
When I'm cleaning windows"

 

[hitmouse]

Absolutely one of the best songs ever written about five o'clock:

 

[Pickman's model]

4:57

 

[blossie33]

25 or 6 to 4

 

[Steel Icarus]

 

[hitmouse]

Disappointingly, neither Public Enemy's Black Steel in the Hour of Chaos or The Body's Even the Saints Knew Their Hour of Failure and Loss make it clear what time of the day these hours take place. Black Steel... does mention 1 to 10, which is a time, but I don't think they meant it that way.

 

[hitmouse]

You got Manny in the library
Working off his hangover 3:30
You get the spleen at 3:15
But it's 3:13

 

[Steel Icarus]

Oh hell, now I've made it look like you find ATB hilarious for some reason Pickman's model - not doing very well this morning, am I?

 

[Sweet FA]

 

[Pickman's model]

Oh hell, now I've made it look like you find ATB hilarious for some reason Pickman's model - not doing very well this morning, am I?

At least it's nearly this afternoon

 

[Steel Icarus]

 

[Steel Icarus]

 

[A380]

Six o’clock (already) Manic Monday Bangles

 

[zahir]

 

[DotCommunist]

is 'the midnight hour' specific enough for the thread:

 

[DotCommunist]

'It's four in the morning, the end of December
I'm writing you now just to see if you're better
New York is cold, but I like where I'm living
There's music on Clinton Street all through the evening'

-L. Cohen

 

[mojo pixy]

is 'the midnight hour' specific enough for the thread:

If it is then Wilson Pickett has something to say

there's also a midnight train going anywhere in 'don't stop believing'

 

[hitmouse]

Out of bed at eight am
Out my head by half past ten...

And, of course, the all-time great lyric:

But two o'clock has come again
It's time to leave this paradise
Hope the chip shop isn't closed
Cos their pies are really nice

 

[8ball]

Love this song.

 

[AverageJoe]

 

[contadino]

Chirpy little number...

 

[tim]

tea

Oh, the fact'ries may be roaring
With a boomalacka zoomalacka whee
But there isn't any roar when the clocks strike four
Everything stops for tea.

 

[Looby]
