Last Transmission

Am I getting through?
Wherever you’re receiving this I bet it’s quite the view
Did you hear that they consecrated
The pavement where we first heard the news (if only they knew)
In every back lane of this old town
They’ve scrawled your words
But always get them wrong

Oh honey we’re losing it down here on Earth

Go on, give us something
To be going on with
Go on give us something
We can work with

Even in the Great North Museum here
They’ve got your hologram
And Psalm 41 on a loop
It’s pay-per-view
And in the last gasp of this old world
You know I think I found the beauty and the good

Oh honey we’re trying down here on Earth

Go on, give us something
To be going on with
Go on give us something
We can work with
We can work with

I’m sure there was one last thing
I’m sure there was one last thing to say
Before this signal fails
