Two O'Clock

Standing on a sea of hot asphalt
What time is the questioned asked

Diving into a pocket                          
          Another fishes around
One pulls out a cell phone                     
          Bringing up a golden pocket watch
Plastic catches the light and shines brightly           
          It seems to glow like the sun
Electrons flow                
          Tiny gears that never stop
Liquid crystal flares to life                     
          Move hands of brass

The response is the same.
"Two O'clock."
But the answer is very different.
