Motorway to Roswell (John Peel Session (23rd June 1991))

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
So many miles, looking for a place to stay
Near some friendly star
He found this mote, and now we wonder where we are
How could this so great turn so shitty, he ended up in army crates
And photographs in files
His tiny boat sparked as he turned to graze 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

He started heading for the motorway
And he came right down (he started heading for the motorway)
And he came right down (he started heading for the motorway)
