[00:38.98]And the moment will come when composure...
[00:38.98]And the moment will come when composure returns
[00:40.78]Put a face on the world, turn your back to the wall
[00:43.84]And you walk twenty yards with your head in the air
[00:47.03]Down the Liberty Hill, where the fashion brigade
[00:49.15]Look with curious eyes on your raggedy way
[00:52.95]And for once in your life you have nothing to say
[00:56.14]And could this be the time when somebody will come
[00:59.38]To say, "Look at yourself, you're not much use to anyone"
[01:15.12]Take a walk in the park, take a valium pill
[01:17.80]Read the letter you got from the memory girl
[01:20.86]But it takes more than this to make sense of the day
[01:24.04]Yeah it takes more than milk to get rid of the taste
[01:27.22]And you trusted to this, and you trusted to that
[01:30.16]And when you saw it all come, it was waving the flag
[01:33.34]Of the United States of Calamity, hey!
[01:36.34]After all that you've done boy, Im sure you're going to pay
[02:04.73]In the morning you come to the ladies salon
[02:07.47]To get all fitted out for The *****back Throne
[02:10.53]But the people are living far away from the place
[02:13.46]Where you wanted to help, it's a bit of a waste
[02:16.65]And the puzzle will last till somebody will say
[02:19.89]"There's a lot to be done while your head is still young"
[02:23.26]If you put down your pen, leave your worries behind
[02:25.76]Then the moment will come, and the memory will shine
[03:19.30]Now the trouble is over, everybody got paid
[03:21.86]Everybody is happy, they are glad that they came
[03:24.92]Then you go to the place where you've finally found
[03:27.98]You can look at yourself sleep the clock around
[03:42.39]sleep the clock around
