the man who swears

there's a man who swears he's god

but i'm pretty sure he's not

there's a man who walks around

like he owns the fucking lot

there's a man who takes his time

from the hands of a cuckoo clock

you can hear him walk around

tick tock

tick tock

tick tock

at first

it was easy

but now why's it have to be so hard?

heaven is a fire escape

you try to cling to in the dark

at first it was simple

but now it got too complicated

but the world just got a lovely time

or blame it all on my mistake

maybe i'll find heaven

one day

after dark

maybe you'll find heaven is a place to part?

we are doing everything we can

we still can't seem to switch it on

i am floating up beneath the clouds
