Lyrics
Ah, the blue of the night
The creed of the reading stream
Blankets, pillows, curtains
Ah, the poor wedded girl
Her uniform burning and burning
(The clock) The clock is on fire
The clock is on fire
Fire
Ah, washes her hair
The sink is a link to the sea that's free
Suds are soapy, suds sing soft
The clock is on fire
Ah, dreaming matter
The face is a close-up, a close-up memory
Letters with feelings
Ah, the clock is on fire
Clock is on fire
Ah, the filament burns
The table is laid with a [?] gone
He enters holding the wanting (The clock is on [?])
Ah, the clock is on fire
The creed of the reading stream
Blankets, pillows, curtains
Ah, the poor wedded girl
Her uniform burning and burning
(The clock) The clock is on fire
The clock is on fire
Fire
Ah, washes her hair
The sink is a link to the sea that's free
Suds are soapy, suds sing soft
The clock is on fire
Ah, dreaming matter
The face is a close-up, a close-up memory
Letters with feelings
Ah, the clock is on fire
Clock is on fire
Ah, the filament burns
The table is laid with a [?] gone
He enters holding the wanting (The clock is on [?])
Ah, the clock is on fire
