Sleep The Clock Around

　　Sleep The Clock Around - belle and sebastian

　　And the moment will come when composure returns

　　Put a face on the world, turn your back to the wall

　　And you walk twenty yards with your head in the air

　　Down the Liberty Hill, where the fashion brigade

　　Look with curious eyes on your raggedy way

　　And for once in your life you have nothing to say

　　And could this be the time when somebody will come

　　To say, "Look at yourself, you're not much use to anyone"

　　Take a walk in the park, take a valium pill

　　Read the letter you got from the memory girl

　　But it takes more than this to make sense of the day

　　Yeah it takes more than milk to get rid of the taste

　　And you trusted to this, and you trusted to that

　　And when you saw it all come, it was waving the flag

　　Of the United States of Calamity, hey!

　　After all that you've done boy, Im sure you're going to pay

　　In the morning you come to the ladies salon

　　To get all fitted out for The *****back Throne

　　But the people are living far away from the place

　　Where you wanted to help, it's a bit of a waste

　　And the puzzle will last till somebody will say

　　"There's a lot to be done while your head is still young"

　　If you put down your pen, leave your worries behind

　　Then the moment will come, and the memory will shine

　　Now the trouble is over, everybody got paid

　　Everybody is happy, they are glad that they came

　　Then you go to the place where you've finally found

　　You can look at yourself sleep the clock around
