Clock Riddle

Riddle:  How do you know a clock is hungry?

Answer:  It goes back four seconds.

What's So Funny?

This riddle is funny to English speakers because "four seconds" sounds the same as another expression, "for seconds."  This other expression means when you've enjoyed your food so much, you go back to the kitchen to re-fill your plate a second time (for seconds).
