Forgotten song is driving me nuts

So it's that thing again where you half-remember a song ...
It's by: I think an indie band from around 1996/1997 - I thought it was Laptop but it isn't (probably). I think British.
Singing: a man with a mid-range voice, not high, not low. Kind of Gene like. Feels like he may have a skinny suit on somehow. There are MAYBE bits of answerphone message in there (but it's not the Laptop song with the answerphone)
Video: do not recall one.
Lyric: something to do with times through the night being mentioned "it's 3.59 and I'm on the street, it's 6.15 and ..." maybe with some answerphone messages. Several different times taking you through a night which seems not positive.
What it's not: The Cure, 10:15 on a Saturday Night (ha - you all have that in your heads now); Mr Brightside (because of the narrative of an evening, but when I heard that song it reminded me of this mystery one).
Come on Hive Mind, I know you can do this!
Best answer: Monday Morning 5:19 by Rialto.

You're welcome. Excellent description, by the way; if they ever someh make describing half remembered songs into a pub-quiz round, you're going to clean up.

Response by poster: Well, thank you. I must have seen that video at some point to remember the suit (trousers).
