On the Clock

I walk into work and I clock in
I'm a few minutes early for my shift
I sit and wait for the rush to begin
And all the small children I'll have to lift

I put on a show and turn on the lights
And sit down while reading a magazine
How many kids will be coming tonight?
Will it be just one or maybe nineteen?

I look at the clock; ten minutes have passed
And yet still no children have come inside
Now 30 minutes have gone by so fast
I wonder if kids will ever arrive

But as soon as I think "that might be nice"
A kid comes in before I've thought it twice
