Metrognome (BBC “Sight & Sound” 10-01-77) Songtext
von Camel

Time on your hands
You do it all the day
Shuffle your feet

And turn on the news
To hear what they might say
They made a machine

And you found your device
They′re lighting the fuse
There's no need to worry


Your world will be alright
Time for a smoke
A pint and a joke
You muddle on through
Silently screaming
"What can i do?"
Till time trips you out
Looking about
Blows you away
High as a kite
On a windy day
