The Clock Is On Fire

[Verse 1]
Ah, the blue of the night
The creed of the reading stream
Blankets, pillows, curtains

[Verse 2]
Ah, the poor wedded girl
Her uniform burning and burning
The clock is on fire

[Refrain]
The clock is on fire
Fire

[Verse 3]
Ah, washes her hair
The sink is a link to the sea that's free
Suds are soapy, [?] so

[Refrain]
The clock is on fire

[Verse 4]
Ah, dreaming [?]
The face is a close-up, a close-up memory
Letters with feelings

[Refrain]
Ah, the clock is on fire
Clock is on fire

[Verse 5]
Ah, the filament burns
The table is laid with a [?] gone
He enters holding the wanting

[Refrain]
Ah, the clock is on fire
