Biografia:
The Boomtown Rats (1975-1984) foram um grupo de punk rock/new wave liderado por Bob Geldof que se veio a tornar conhecido por organizar shows beneficentes, tais como Band Aid (com a intenção de ajudar as vítimas da fome na Etiópia), Live Aid, e Hands Across America (com intenção de ajudar os sem-teto dos Estados Unidos).
O seu maior êxito foi “I Don´t Like Mondays”, escrito a propósito do tiroteio numa escola executado por Brenda Ann Spencer, que disse tê-lo feito por não gostar das segundas-feiras.

Like Clockwork - The Boomtown Rats (from the album "A Tonic For The Troops")
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
Tick tock, tick tock
Am
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
F
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
Am
I'm not disconnected
F
I'm not unaware
Am
I'm in one place at one time
F
I'm neither here nor there
Am
I'm hooked to the mainstream
Tuned into the world
F
Plugged into my surroundings
not out on a limb
Am
I'm thinking in a straight line
I'm thinking that these thoughts are mine
F
My heart is beating oh so fast
I feel the hours crashing
C G E Am
And my mind beats time like clockwork
C G E Am
And I think in sync like clockwork
Am
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
F
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
Am
She's done away with emotion
F
She sees things clearly now
Am
She says she sees it all from her room
F
And it looks so small from her room
Am
It's all right, it's all right
F
I'm on your side...for a while
Am
She thinks time is the concept by which we measure our age
F
She wants to say it again, but she don't have time
C G E Am
Because her mind beats time like clockwork
C G E Am
And she thinks in sync like clockwork
Am
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
F
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
C Bm E
Count the hours, count the months and minutes
C Bm E
You're born in tears and you die in pain and that's your limit
C Bm
You're lookin' for so many reasons but there's none
E
there, why don't you admit it
C Bm E
We make the most of what we've got, that's the ticket
Am
My, my, my
Am
I stayed in that room a long, long time
F
And watched the seasons gliding by
And hey...what's the matter?
We've got time, lots of time
It's alright, it's alright
I'm on your side for a while
We'll wind up
We'll slow down
We'll speed up, move around, or we'll maybe overwind..
C G E Am
Because our minds beats time like clockwork
C G E Am
And now we think in sync like clockwork ooh ooh ooh
C G E Am
And our minds beats time like clockwork
C G E Am
And we think in sync like clockwork
Am
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
