Thought I Was a Spaceman - Blur

Thought I was a spaceman

Digging out my heart

In some distant sand dunes

In a carpark

Cause the desert had encroached upon

The places where we live

People like me find it To keep the day upset

But we never succeeded

We never succeeded

In fact we failed

Thought I was a spaceman

Digging out my heart

In some distant sand dune

In a car park

By the empty harbor

Where the junkball phantoms flow

The fight for happy valley

Sadly, the line wrote

Thought I found my black box

Washed up on the shore

All outlying islands

What’s the land for

Thought I thought I’d found it But that was not true at all

I’d walked into a bar

Raised hell

Cut the cast without me Always and always the same

But the ghost in writing

And let it be you again

Thought I was a spaceman

Digging out my heart

In some distant sand dune

In Hyde Park

Thought I was a spaceman

Digging up my heart

In some distant sand dune

You again

Thought I was a spaceman

Digging up my heart

In some distant sand dune

You again

You again

You again
