lyrics

“You’ve seen night become day”
The test card girl turns to say
(Double-take)
With her six-hour stare
She says you’re going nowhere
(Half awake)

You’ve been miserable for five days
Empty head and a full ashtray
On the sofa
On the sofabed

There’s a band that Mark wants to see
He’s got you by the collar, he’s been on it since three
There’s no question
There’s no option

You’re getting on it
Ce soir
You’re getting on it
For her

Through the smoke and the glare
There’s a girl with golden hair
(Is she there?)
White gazelles in the dark
You forget who are
(In the dark)

Seven hours later you’re sitting on the stairs
The secret of the universe you’re almost there
It’s so real
It’s so real what you feel

Then Mark appears with two beers in his hand
The lights go up and then you’re in a cab
And it’s over
It’s all over

You’re getting on it
Tonight
You’ve lost your wallet
There’s nothing in it
Alright
