Sleep the clock around

And the moment will come when composure returns
put a face on the world put your back to the wall
and you walk twenty yards with your head in the air
down liberty hill where the fashion brigade
look with curious eyes at your raggedy ways
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 yourselfyour 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
when you saw it all come you were waving the flag
of the united states of calamity hey
after all that you done boy and now your gonna pay.
In the morning you come to the ladies salon
to get all fitted out for the paper back throne
but the people are living far away from the place
where you wanted to help your a bit of a waste
and the puzzle will laste till somebody will say
"there's a lot to be done while your head is still young"
if you put down your head leave your worries behind
then the moment wil 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.
