Service Station At The End of the Universe

Accidentally entered through the exit side

And a midlife crisis convertible star cruiser flies by

A brief respite from the flow of time

Door slammed shut

Hot dog in a hot car on the Orbital road that could

Automatic doors side, dodge the wet floor sign

And the luminous gloop on the underside

A child takes a ride in a coin-operated meteorite

Fair play, kid

Half a song to the right and I'm on the motorway bridge

Straight out the 1960's

18-wheeler capsizes in my mind's eye

How's that for voyeuristic?

If we all crashed I like to think I'd be the one to fix it

Well

[Verse 2]

Group of lads getting lively

Angie's Angel's maid of honour, can't stop crying

Everyone's dying together, happily dying

But crying apart forever

Cleaner with the face of the Horsehead Nebula quietly doing God's work

But we were abandoned long ago

Fuck around and find out

A man with a yoga mat thinks he already has

Probably time to head back

Past the comedown crew sitting on the floor and a stag-do Hulk Hogan

Slip on the luminous goo and onto my back, broken

Someone always moves the sign

People shuffle past, past lives

It's a quarter to five somewhere

[Outro]

In the service station at the end of the universe

In the service station

At the end of the universe

At the end of the-

All the things that you believe in

The best is yet to come (At the end)

The road goes on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on

All the things that you believe in (And I'm trapped)

The best is yet to come (In the service station)

The world goes on and on (At the end of the universe, at the end of the universe)

The best is yet to come (At the end)

The road goes on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on

All the things that you believe in (And I'm trapped)

The best is yet to come (In the service station)

The world goes on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on

(At the end of the universe, at the end of the)
