Rock Around the Clock
Timeless Celebration: Rocking Through the Hours
Lyrics
One, two, three o'clock, four o'clock, rock,
The counting of hours, emphasizing the passage of time.
Five, six, seven o'clock, eight o'clock, rock,
Continuation of time countdown, setting the rhythm for the upcoming event.
Nine, ten, eleven o'clock, twelve o'clock, rock,
Further counting, building anticipation for the event mentioned.
We're gonna rock around the clock tonight.
Expressing the intention to engage in lively, energetic dancing and enjoyment during the night.
Put your glad rags on and join me, hon,
Encouragement to dress up and join in the festivities.
We'll have some fun when the clock strikes one,
Anticipation of having fun when the clock strikes one.
We're gonna rock around the clock tonight,
Reiterating the plan to dance and have a good time as the night progresses.
We're gonna rock, rock, rock, 'til broad daylight.
Commitment to rocking and having a great time until dawn.
We're gonna rock, gonna rock, around the clock tonight.
Repetition of the determination to rock around the clock on this night.
When the clock strikes two, three and four,
Referencing later hours and expressing the expectation for continued music and dancing.
If the band slows down we'll yell for more,
Indication that if the music slows down, there will be a demand for more excitement.
We're gonna rock around the clock tonight,
Confirmation of the plan to rock and enjoy the night.
We're gonna rock, rock, rock, 'til broad daylight.
Reiteration of the commitment to rock until daylight.
We're gonna rock, gonna rock, around the clock tonight.
Restating the determination to rock around the clock on this night.
When the chimes ring five, six and seven,
Pointing out the hours five, six, and seven with the expectation of reaching a state of bliss or ecstasy.
We'll be right in seventh heaven.
Expressing the anticipation of great joy or happiness during this time period.
We're gonna rock around the clock tonight,
Confirmation of the intention to continue rocking and having a good time.
We're gonna rock, rock, rock, 'til broad daylight.
Reiteration of the commitment to rock until the break of day.
We're gonna rock, gonna rock, around the clock tonight.
Restating the determination to rock around the clock on this night.
When it's eight, nine, ten, eleven too,
Referring to the hours eight, nine, ten, and eleven, expressing confidence in sustained energy and enthusiasm.
I'll be goin' strong and so will you.
Assurance that both individuals will maintain their vigor and continue to rock.
We're gonna rock around the clock tonight,
Confirmation of the plan to rock and enjoy the night.
We're gonna rock, rock, rock, 'til broad daylight.
Reiteration of the commitment to rock until daylight.
We're gonna rock, gonna rock, around the clock tonight.
Restating the determination to rock around the clock on this night.
When the clock strikes twelve, we'll cool off then,
Anticipating a break or cooldown when the clock strikes twelve.
Start a rockin' round the clock again.
Plan to resume rocking and continue the festivities after the break.
We're gonna rock around the clock tonight,
Confirmation of the plan to rock and enjoy the night.
We're gonna rock, rock, rock, 'til broad daylight.
Reiteration of the commitment to rock until daylight.
We're gonna rock, gonna rock, around the clock tonight.
Restating the determination to rock around the clock on this night.
