Belle & Sebastian - Sleep the clock around

And the ^Emoment will come when composure returns Put a ^Bface on the world turn your back to the wall

And you ^C#mwalk twenty yards with your head in the air Down the ^ALiberty Hill where the fashion brigade

Look with ^Ecurious eyes on your raggedy way And for ^Bonce in your life you've got nothing to say

And could ^C#mthis be the time when somebody will come To say Lo^Aok at yourself you're not much use to anyone

Take a ^Ewalk in the park take a valium pill Read the ^Bletter you got from the memory girl

But it ^C#mtakes more than this to make sense of the day Yeah it t^Aakes more than milk to get rid of the taste

And you ^Etrusted to this and you trusted to that And when you ^Bsaw it all come it was waving the flag

Of the ^C#mUnited States of Calamity hey After ^Aall that you've done boy I know you're going to pay

In the ^Emorning you come to the ladies salon To get ^Ball fitted out for The Paperback Throne

But the ^C#mpeople are living far away from the place Where you ^Awanted to help it's a bit of a waste

And the ^Epuzzle will last until somebody will say There's a l^Bot to be done while your head is still young

If you ^C#mput down your pen leave your worries behind Then the ^Amoment will come and the memory will shine

Now the ^Etrouble is over everybody got paid Every^Bbody is happy they are glad that they came

Then you ^C#mgo to the place where you've finally found You can ^Alook at yourself sleep the clock around
