lyrics

staring at the clocks

i was staring at the clocks
and they seemed to slow down
like tin machines with batteries worn out
sometimes i am a machine
when you run me too long, yeah things will go wrong

i'm at odds with what i do
though it keeps me alive
i'll be at home and wonder if my soul's died
he accounts for every cent
they're products not art - recycled songs from disposable hearts

she says it's not the way that you bring it home every night
it's just that you could bring it and also do what's right
so get right, you time-bomb

don't let the clocks run out

you aren't given much of a choice
in the town you live in
it's do or die, so it's easy to decide
machines break at every turn
you know this too well, so don't be one of them

she says it's not the way that you bring it home every night
it's just that you could bring it and also do what's right
so get right, you time-bomb
so get right, you time-bomb
