Syncopated Clock

Famous quotes containing the words syncopated and/or clock:

“Droning a drowsy syncopated tune,
Rocking back and forth to a mellow croon,
I heard a Negro play.

Down on Lenox Avenue the other night
By the pale dull pallor of an old gas light”

“By putting forward the hands of the clock you shall not advance the hour.”
