Clockwork
Clockwork refers to the inner workings of either a mechanical clock (where it is also called a movement) or another device that operates in a similar fashion (such as a dial indicator). Specifically, the term refers to mechanisms utilizing a complex series of gears.
A clockwork motor is a clockwork device mechanically powered by a mainspring, a spiral torsion spring of metal ribbon. Energy is stored in the mainspring manually by winding it up, turning a key attached to a ratchet which twists the mainspring tighter. Then the force of the mainspring turns the clockwork's gears, until the stored energy is used up. The adjective wind-up refers to mainspring-powered clockwork devices, which include clocks and watches, kitchen timers, music boxes, and wind-up toys.
History
One of the earliest known examples of a clockwork mechanism is the Antikythera mechanism, a first-century BC geared analogue computer, somewhat astrolabe-like, for calculating astronomical positions and eclipses, recovered from a Greek shipwreck. There are many other accounts of clockwork devices in ancient Greece, even in its mythology, and the mechanism itself is sophisticated enough to indicate a significant history of lesser devices leading up to its creation.
Clockwork (Easton Corbin song)
"Clockwork" is a song recorded by American country music artist Easton Corbin. It was released in January 2014 as the lead single from Corbin's third studio album, About to Get Real. The song was written by Carson Chamberlain, Ashley Gorley and Wade Kirby.
Content
When asked about the song Corbin stated, “I’m very, VERY excited to have new music out now for my fans. I’m excited especially to release a song like ‘Clockwork...’‘Clockwork’ is a good reflection of my country roots and it shows that I’m growing as an artist. I think when my fans hear this song they will get a good taste of how my upcoming album is going to be.”
Critical reception
Matt Bjorke of Roughstock rated Clockwork 3.5 stars. He states, "as far as lead singles from upcoming albums go, “Clockwork” is the kind of song which SHOULD do well at radio. It has the contemporary melody —there’s even audible steel guitar fills — and a solid vocal from Easton Corbin."
Music video
The music video was directed by Shaun Silva and premiered in April 2014.

Clockwork
by: Easton CorbinMight as well have my alarm
Set on my phone, girl
It's like you got a camera
Don't know how you know
I'm home alone, girl
Come around ten forty-seven
Every Friday night
Might as well leave the light on
'Cause you're always right on time
You call, I say hello
You knock, I'm lettin' you in
You say you've missed my lips
We kiss, here we go again
Your dress, my shirt
We love, I live and never learn
I crash, I burn, you leave, I hurt
Like clockwork
It's like I'm walkin' down the street
And fall in that same trap, girl
I see a freight train comin'
And I just stand there on the tracks, girl
Somebody'd be gettin' rich if they were placin' bets
On me thinkin' no, no no; always sayin' yes
You call, I say hello
You knock, I'm lettin' you in
You say you've missed my lips
We kiss, here we go again
Your dress, my shirt
We love, I live and never learn
I crash, I burn, you leave, I hurt
Like clockwork
It's too easy, you know my street
You know where I leave my key
Baby, you know me,
I can count on you to count on me
It's like a movie I've seen a thousand times
I hate the end, but I still hit rewind
You call, I say hello
You knock, I'm lettin' you in
You say you've missed my lips
We kiss, here we go again
Your dress, my shirt
We love, I live and never learn
I crash, I burn, you leave, I hurt
