[verse 1] Time is not marching forward! It's doing an Irish jig across the floor Maybe the coffee makes my mind race It's two A.M. and there's somebody at the door I'm enjoying the musical surprises I'm creating and listening back It's two o'clock in the morning And I'm supposed to hit the sack [Chorus] Quick, quick There's someone at the door Quick, quick I want to dance some more The jigs and reels have got me spinning These Irish tunes are winning It must be time for bed by now I can't stop jigging around There was a knock at the door And the man just frowned [Verse 2] The rhythm is already there The music has a lovely hook Shall I dance across the bedroom floor Or settle back down with a book? There's a comic struggle Between the songs and bed I like to do the jig and reels Even though I'm a sleepy head [Chorus] Quick, quick There's someone at the door Quick, quick I want to dance some more The jigs and reels have got me spinning These Irish tunes are winning It must be time for bed by now I can't stop jigging around There was a knock at the door And the man just frowned [Verse 3] Being creative is so tempting at two. I know we'll still be there in the morning 'Cos although it's only early The day is nearly dawning I'd like to dance this jig some more It's an exciting Irish beat The reels will see me spinning round And probably off my feet [Chorus] Quick, quick There's someone at the door Quick, quick I want to dance some more The jigs and reels have got me spinning These Irish tunes are winning It must be time for bed by now I can't stop jigging around There was a knock at the door And the man just frowned [Outro] Is it time for bed? The man just frowned! I've drunk so much Macchiato I nearly drowned Just... One... More... Jig And then I'll go to bed!
