Songs That's Weird, Grandma

One day Justin was meditating in a big white block he got for his birthday. The block came with 4 clocks. While he was meditating he heard a voice that said “4 clocks connect to one cube.” Justin opened his eyes and stopped meditating. He was curious about what that meant. Justin’s friend Michael knocked on the door. Justin yelled “Who is it.” Michael yelled back and said “It’s Michael.” Justin ran over to answer the door. Justin told Michael about what happened while he meditated. They took Justin’s 4 clocks off the wall. Then stuck each one on a different side of the cube. Michael left and said “Goodbye.” Justin winded the watch on his wrist. Justin leaned on the cube. Then a hole appeared under him he fell but he did not know the hole was a vortex of ticks and tocks and on his way to the twilight zone.
