Guitar 1):
Last night he could not make it
He tried hard but he could not make it
Last night he could not make it
On a holiday
For many miles
Riff 1
Looking for a place to stay
Near some friendly star
He found this mote
Riff 1
And now we wonder where we are
How could this so great
Turn so shitty
Riff 1
He ended up in army crates
And photographs in files
His tiny boat
Sparked as he turned to
Grazed our city
I started driving on the motorway
I was feeling down

And he came right down
