"It's Five O'clock" is a song by the Greek band Aphrodite's Child from their 1969 studio album It's Five O'Clock. It was also released as a single, in February 1970, on Mercury Records.
The song was written by Evangelos Papathanassiou and Richard Julian Francis. The song reached no. 6 in Switzerland and no. 11 in the Netherlands.
