The clock died at a quarter to midnight
 Frozen angels on my bedpost
 Tripping over some senseless beggar
 A simple case of mistaken face
 My, how nothing changes
 Different men in the same positions
 
 Just this side of Motel's End at Suicide Ocean
 Birds don't cry and babies don't fly at Suicide Ocean
 Just this side of Motel's End at Suicide Ocean
 
 Time died at a quarter to midnight
 The scent of a ghost fills the air
 The clock on the wall broke down to fall
 My bleeding head on the baseboard
 My, how nothing changes
 Different men in the same positions
