歌词

[00:31.27] And the moment will come when composure returns
[00:34.28] Put a face on the world, turn your back to the wall
[00:36.98] And you walk twenty yards with your head in the air
[00:40.03] Down the Liberty Hill, where the fashion brigade
[00:42.67]
[00:43.52] Look with curious eyes on your raggedy way
[00:46.31] And for once in your life you've got nothing to say
[00:49.47] And could this be the time when somebody will come?
[00:52.30] To say, "Look at yourself, you're not much use to anyone"
[00:57.43]
[01:08.29] Take a walk in the park, take a Valium pill
[01:11.00] Read the letter you got from the memory girl
[01:13.99] But it takes more than this to make sense of the day
[01:17.36] Yeah,it takes more than milk to get rid of the taste
[01:19.79]
[01:20.32] And you trusted to this, and you trusted to that
[01:23.45] And when you saw it all come, it was waving the flag
[01:26.82] Of the United States of Calamity, hey!
[01:29.83] After all that you've done, boy, I know you're going to pay
[01:34.65]
[01:58.00] In the morning you come to the ladies' salon
[02:00.83] To get all fitted out for The Paperback Throne
[02:04.10] But the people are living far away from the place
[02:06.88] Where you wanted to help, it's a bit of a waste
[02:09.47]
[02:09.88] And the puzzle will last 'till somebody will say
[02:13.19] "There's a lot to be done while your head is still young"
[02:16.05] If you put down your pen, leave your worries behind
[02:19.13] Then the moment will come, and the memory will shine
[02:25.00]
[03:12.14] Now the trouble is over, everybody got paid
[03:15.04] Everybody is happy, they are glad that they came
[03:18.05] Then you go to the place where you've finally found
[03:21.53] You can look at yourself sleep the clock around
[03:26.57]
[03:47.99] You sleep the clock around
