Clocks and Spoons (John Prine)

Clocks and spoons and empty rooms

It's raining out tonight

What a way to end a day

By turnin' out the light

Shoot the moon right between the eyes

I'm sending most of me to sunny countryside

Runnin' through sky of blue

Rollin' in the sun

Every day has a way

Of overflowing wine

Shoot the moon right between the eyes

I'm keeping most of me in sunny countryside

Don't know how I did that now

Wonder where it's gone

Must have spent the way I went

Waitin' for the dawn

Shoot the moon right between the eyes

I'm screaming

Take me back to sunny countryside

Shoot the moon right between the eyes

I'm screaming

Take me back to sunny countryside

Clocks and spoons and empty rooms

It's raining out tonight
