[Black Box Recorder - The English Motorway System lyrics]
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 is over
Let me know, don't make me wait
(Driving with no aim or intention)
On the English motorway
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?
Am I just colour-blind?
(Leave the north, visit friend's at south)
On the English motorway
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 is over
Let me know, don't make me wait
(Driving with no aim or intention)
On the English motorway
The English motorway system is
Beautiful and strange
The English motorway system is
Beautiful and strange
The English motorway system is
Beautiful and strange
The English motorway system is
Beautiful and strange
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 is over
Let me know, don't make me wait
(Driving with no aim or intention)
On the English motorway
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?
Am I just colour-blind?
(Leave the north, visit friend's at south)
On the English motorway
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 is over
Let me know, don't make me wait
(Driving with no aim or intention)
On the English motorway
The English motorway system is
Beautiful and strange
The English motorway system is
Beautiful and strange
The English motorway system is
Beautiful and strange
The English motorway system is
Beautiful and strange
