[Verse 1]
But let's talk about you for a minute
With the vomit in your gullet
From a half bottle of vodka that we'd stolen from the optic
On the back seat in your car, because it wasn't safe to start it
You were "far too f**ed to drive" were the words that you imparted
And the woollen dress that clung so tight, to the contours of your body
And the dead gra** stuck to fibres from us rolling in the lay-by
Were pa**ed to dog-haired blankets
That protected the bench seat covers
And a crucifix was hung from rear-view mirror by your mother
[Verse 2]
I'm leaving my body to science, not medical but physics
Drag my corpse through the airport and lay me limp on the left wing
Drop me at the highest point and trace a line around the dent I leave in the ground
That'll be the initial of the one you'll marry now I'm not around
I flew for seven hours
The sky didn't once turn black
[Bridge]
You know I'd sooner go down in a ball of flames
Than I would lay here and be bored to d**h
All's well that ends
[Outro]
I wake from sleep, my head and shoulders wet against the window
A frost had formed and melted, soaked me right through to my collar bone
If you were given the option of dying painlessly in peace at forty-five
But with a lover at your side, after a full and happy life
Is this something that would interest you?
Would this interest you at all?
