lyrics

There’s a pendulum on the digital clock
The town’s decoration with a really loud tock
That wakes everyone 10 miles from the city
But no one complains ’cause it looks so pretty

And the satellite delivers them the time
So they know it’s 4 a.m. and it’s a crime
That they’re listening to the clock instead of sleeping


There’s a monument to the new modern age
With a Romanesque arch in a neo-Greco cage
It’s holding up a thousand-watt speaker
That keeps the town’s morale from getting bleaker

And the speaker loops a message to the town
Reminding them that they should never frown
Or spend any of their public time weeping

And no one can sleep
’Cause if they’re caught awake
They will lose all their friends
And have to find a new town

That fakes the rain and takes all the snow
And hides it somewhere no one ever goes

And the satellite delivers them the time
So they know it’s 4 a.m. and it’s a crime
That they’re listening to the clock instead of sleeping
