Lights go out and I can't be saved
Tides that I tried to swim against
You've put me down upon my knees
Oh I beg, I beg and plead, singing
Come out of things unsaid, shoot an apple
off my head and a
Trouble that can't be named, tigers waiting to be tamed, singing
You are, you are
Confusion never stops, closing walls and ticking clocks, gonna
Come back and take you home, I could not stop, that you now know, singing
Come out upon my seas, curse missed opportunities, am I
A part of the cure, or am I part of the disease, singing
You are, you are, you are, you are
You are, you are
And nothing else compares
Oh no nothing else compares
And nothing else compares
You are (in background)
Home, home, where I wanted to go,
Home, home, where I wanted to go,
Home, home, where I wanted to go,
Home, home, where I wanted to go.

Sometimes confusing if this clock was showing the wrong time, but it was showing the right time passing it on the no 4 bus to Solihull on the Warwick Road.
Also seems to be a small war memorial on the island near Old Warwick Road.
The Chamberlain Clock stands at the junction of the Vyse and Frederick Street with Warstone Lane. It was constructed in 1903 to mark Joseph Chamberlain's visit to South Africa. It was unveiled in January 1904 by Joseph Chamberlain's wife. It is now a local landmark and symbol of the Quarter.
Chamberlain had been a resident on Frederick Street and had also helped jewellers through his campaign work to abolish Plate Duties - a tax affecting jewellery tradesmen of the time. The timepiece was originally powered by a clockwork winding handle. It was later adapted to electricity but fell into disrepair and lost its chime. As a result, it was fully restored in 1989.

This Bundy clock is situated at the Severn Valley Railway Kidderminster, and it was was in regular use providing a reliable method of time recording for the Birmingham Bus and Tram system. The unit was re-commissioned by Councillor Worrall, the Chairman of the West Midlands Passenger Transport Authority at a special ceremony on 14th October 2001.
A paper tape transport with recording printer sits in the centre box. The time clock itself, can be seen at the top of the stack. A transfer drive spindle synchronises the two units.
The driver would place a key coded to his duty, in a slot in the centre box and turn it. The print mechanism then printed his key number and the arrival time on the paper tape.

The Colgate Clock, located at the Colgate-Palmolive factory in Clarksville, Indiana is one of the largest clocks in the world. It has a diameter of 40 feet. It was first illuminated in Clarksville on 11/17/1924. It is located directly across the Ohio River from Louisville, Kentucky.
Before the factory was bought by Colgate, it served as the Indiana Reformatory South. It opened in 1847. In 1919 there was a fire and caused the need for much money to be spent in order to restore it to full operating capacity. The state of Indiana decided to relocate the prison and Colgate bought the building in 1923. Designed by Colgate engineer Warren day and constructed by the Seth Thomas Clock Company for the centennial for the Colgate Company in 1906, the clock served as the original Colgate Clock at Colgate-Palmolive facilities located in Jersey City, New Jersey.
