Art Rush - Skittle Lane lyrics

Fishing by lamplight visible from the express 24 minutes outside the purple lines Her mother was involved with the guy from INXS The miniseries got it wrong but she never told the press I wish I could be more direct with what’s been on my mind Let me explain, in Skittle Lane. All the people at this party, they’ve got a lot of style And their heads are turning subtly to take you in Nothin’ too discreet in all the science of that smile Now I can’t go back to Petersham, at least not for a while There’s high heels in your handbag, I saw you put them in Meet you on the last train to Skittle Lane. “Spirit on the water,” I’m singing to you In a vision of the future in my head Hinting and exposing and regressing out and through In the holographic winter of 2052 We’ll both still belong to others, and I’ll still picture you in bed Nothing will have changed in Skittle Lane. Campbell says to Olga, “Remind me what I did, Though I’m just a stream of data, I have feelings.” Olga replies, “Though my heart is made of tin, There’s a SIM card in your handbag, I saw you put it in.” I never seen this man of yours, I guess I never will He’ll always be a concept to me There will come a time when we will finally get to kiss In the holographic autumn of 2053 And by that time still nothing will have changed In Skittle Lane.
