lyrics

Clock

Summer's rays upon my head
summer's here but summer's dead
standing out all soaking wet
see I can't anymore

small man's shoes and big man laugh
two week's I been in the bath
gone to split myself in half
see I can't anymore

andI tried laughing so hard I cried
change the clock on the wall

looking hard and feeling mean
sucking on acetylene
then pretend that I was clean
but I can anymore
wishing well and wishing for
a wishing star upon my door
pick myself up off the floor
but I can't any more

and I tried laughing so hard I cried
change the clock on the wall
change the clock on the wall

fee fie foe fum I smell the blood of everyone
fum foe fie fee someone better get to me

let her out then let her in
leather strap across my chin
I’ll dangle in the blowing wind
'cause I can't anymore
circle 'round or straight to hell
what's the difference I can't tell
time to ring the dinner bell
'cause I can't anymore

and I tried laughing so hard I cried
change the clock on the wall
change the clock on the wall
change the clock on the wall
