lyrics

Captain Kirk

The stereo was blasting Double Nickels On The Dime
And we drifted off to a place without time
I see you bought some plants to brighten up the place
They’re dying in your window sill
But they’re doing it with grace

Lying on your ashtray floor
Looking up at Captain Kirk
And the battered old kites
And your boyfriend’s ugly smirk

I can hardly hear you over the voices in my head
I can barely hear myself say “Think it’s time I’m off to bed”
Peddling home, I take the long cut, underneath a purple sky
I might take off any minute, I think I’ve jus learned to fly

Lying on your ashtray floor
Looking up at Captain Kirk
And the battered old kites
And your boyfriend’s ugly smirk

I didn’t come here to fall in love
I didn’t even come here to chat
But you’re sitting awful close
And you’re not helping with my maths

You’re a sick little girl

The stereo was blasting New Day Rising once again
Screw George Orwell, eighty four was heaven sent
I passed by your old house the other day
I could swear I saw the same plants
withering away
