Clock Songtext

von Beck

Worum geht es in dem Song?

Der Songtext "Clock" von Beck thematisiert verschiedene Facetten des Lebens und der Gesellschaft. Er stellt Fragen über ...

Is it come and gone, is it long before the spirit shaves his legs?
Is it wrapped in trash, sent back to a sanitation tank?
Is it disinfected, disconnected 'til it grafts some wires?
Is it sped up, spun around, brown and yellow in the fires?

What is this town? They said I got no place to be,
The money meter's taking everything I see.

Is it comes in lovely bones that put their shirts on ice?
Is it fireflies that cross out eyes with any spice?
Is it normal, born-again? Let the vultures drink and drown,
Is it's force from weathers? Birds of feathers never frown.

What is this town? They said I got no place to be,
The money meter's taking everything I see.

Is it come and gone, is it long before the spirit shaves his legs?

What is this town? They said I got no place to be,
The money meter's taking everything I see.
