Lyrics

Clara
 Chilly Gonzales & Jarvis Cocker
 Clara, dear Clara
 Tell me, please do
 How come your dear father
 Was far smarter than you?
 And Clara, dear Clara
 What will you do
 Now your only daughter
 Has taken to the booze
 It's a family drama
 Though you lack the skill to write it down
 'Cos Daddy used up all the ink
 Then he took his pen and left town
 Clara, dear Clara
 Now your husband's gone too
 Leaving his piano
 In this hotel room so play it
 Clara
 Remember, dear Clara
 How he used to play for you
 Like a personal orchestra
 If you could just recall the tune
 Clara
 Remember, Clara
 Everything was harmonious
 Everything was melodic
 Now you're a lonely widow
 And your daughter's alcoholic
 The last of the bloodline
 Is 40 percent proof
 Just like a friend of your dad's once almost said:
 "Being young is wasted on the youth"
 Clara, dear Clara
 Tell me, please do
 How come your dear father
 Was far smarter than you?
 Tell me, Clara
 Clara
 Clara
