Last night he could not make it
He tried hard but could not make it
Last night he could not make it
On a holiday
So many miles
Looking for a place to stay
Near some friendly star
He found this mote
Now we wonder where we are
How could this so great
Turned so shitty
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
Last night he could not make it
Last night he could not make it
He tried hard but he could not make it
Last night he could not make
On a holiday
So many miles
Looking for a place to stay
Near some friendly star
He found this mote
And now we wonder
How could this so great
Turned so shit
He ended up in army crates
And photographs in files
His tiny boat
Sparked as he grazed it
Last night he could not make it
He tried hard but he could not make it
Last night he could not make it
He tried hard but he could not make it
He started heading for the motorway
And he came right now.
