The English Motorway System
Black Box Recorder - 《The Facts Of Life》
The English motorway system is beautiful and strange
It's been there forever it's never going to change
It eliminates all diversions it eliminates all emotions
(All you got to do to stay alive is drive)
There are things we need to talk about
There are things I cannot do without
If you think the journey's over
Let me know don't make me wait
(Driving with no aim or intention)
The English motorway system can be quite hypnotising
You achieve a Zen like state as someone else's driving
It becomes detached observing colours and straight lights
Distant town and exit signs
(Do you really want to break up?)
There are things we need to talk about
There are things I cannot do without
Is this the end of the rainbow?
(Leave the north visit friend's at south)
The English motorway system is an accident waiting to happen
On the black ice a lorry jack knives on there's freezing fog in November
And you wonder if there's someone who really does decide
I thought I saw you in a distance
(Do you really want to break up?)
There are things we need to talk about
There are things I cannot do without
When you think the journey's over
(Driving with no aim or intention)
