<pre><font size='+2'>DRAKE NICK AT THE CHIME OF A CITY CLOCK lyrics NICK DRAKE</font><br>A city freeze<br />
 Get on your knees<br />
 Pray for warmth and green paper.<br />
 A city drought<br />
 You`re down and out<br />
 See your trousers don`t taper.<br />
 Saddle up<br />
 Kick your feet<br />
 Ride the range of a London street<br />
 Travel to a local plane<br />
 Turn around and come back again.<br />
 <br />
 And at the chime of the city clock<br />
 Put up your road block<br />
 Hang on to your crown.<br />
 For a stone in a tin can<br />
 Is wealth to the city man<br />
 Who leaves his armour down.<br />
 <br />
 Stay indoors<br />
 Beneath the floors<br />
 Talk with neighbours only.<br />
 The games you play<br />
 Make people say<br />
 You`re either weird or lonely.<br />
 A city star<br />
 Won`t shine too far<br />
 On account of the way you are<br />
 And the beads <br />
 Around your face<br />
 Make you sure to fit back in place.<br />
 <br />
 And at the beat of the city drum<br />
 See how your friends come in twos;<br />
 Or threes or more.<br />
 For the sound of a busy place<br />
 Is fine for a pretty face<br />
 Who knows what a face is for.<br />
 <br />
 The city clown<br />
 Will soon fall down<br />
 Without a face to hide in.<br />
 And he will lose<br />
 If he won`t choose<br />
 The one he may confide in.<br />
 Sonny boy<br />
 With smokes for sale<br />
 Went to ground with a face so pale<br />
 And never heard<br />
 About the change<br />
 Showed his hand and fell out of range.<br />
 <br />
 In the light of a city square<br />
 Find out the face that`s fair<br />
 Keep it by your side.<br />
 When the light of the city falls<br />
 You fly to the city walls<br />
 Take off with your bride.<br />
 <br />
 But at the chime of a city clock<br />
 Put up your road block<br />
 Hang on to your crown.<br />
 For a stone in a tin can<br />
 Is wealth to the city man<br />
 Who leaves his armour down.<br><br><a href='http://www.lyricsbay.com' target='_blank'>LyricsBay</a> | <a href="http://www.lyricsbay.com/drake_nick_at_the_chime_of_a_city_clock_lyrics-nick_drake.html" target='_blank'>DRAKE NICK AT THE CHIME OF A CITY CLOCK lyrics NICK DRAKE</a></pre>

A city freeze
Get on your knees
Pray for warmth and green paper.
A city drought
You`re down and out
See your trousers don`t taper.
Saddle up
Kick your feet
Ride the range of a London street
Travel to a local plane
Turn around and come back again.

And at the chime of the city clock
Put up your road block
Hang on to your crown.
For a stone in a tin can
Is wealth to the city man
Who leaves his armour down.

Stay indoors
Beneath the floors
Talk with neighbours only.
The games you play
Make people say
You`re either weird or lonely.
A city star
Won`t shine too far
On account of the way you are
And the beads
Around your face
Make you sure to fit back in place.

And at the beat of the city drum
See how your friends come in twos;
Or threes or more.
For the sound of a busy place
Is fine for a pretty face
Who knows what a face is for.

The city clown
Will soon fall down
Without a face to hide in.
And he will lose
If he won`t choose
The one he may confide in.
Sonny boy
With smokes for sale
Went to ground with a face so pale
And never heard
About the change
Showed his hand and fell out of range.

In the light of a city square
Find out the face that`s fair
Keep it by your side.
When the light of the city falls
You fly to the city walls
Take off with your bride.

But at the chime of a city clock
Put up your road block
Hang on to your crown.
For a stone in a tin can
Is wealth to the city man
Who leaves his armour down.
