The Talking Clock

Proudly showing off his new apartment to a couple of his friends late one night the host led the way to his bedroom where there was a big brass gong.
"What's that big brass gong for?" one of the guests asked.
"It's not a gong. It's a talking clock" the host replied.
"A talking clock? Seriously?" asked his astonished friend.
"Yup" replied the host.
"How's it work?" the second guest asked, squinting at it.
"Watch" the man said. He picked up a hammer, gave it an ear shattering pound and stepped back.
The three stood looking at one another for a moment.
Suddenly, someone on the other side of the wall screamed, "For god sake, you asshole....it's ten past three in the morning!"
