I tried to book a train today
I thought it wouldn’t take me long
I had my destination right
But I typed the date in wrong
Screen went blue, then flashed at last
‘Outward travel must not be in the past.’
Isn’t that just me all over
Always leaving stuff behind
Little precious bits and pieces
Little fragments of my mind
Look around for what I lack
‘Always check the luggage rack’
Even as a little lad, I
Used to miss my bus stop home
Cried my eyes out when I woke up
In the dark back seat alone
The driver didn’t worry, he
Said, ‘Worse things happen son, at sea.’
Even then it didn’t help to
Hear the clichés that he said
To know that some far distant sailor
Missed his mother and his bed
It wasn’t any consolation
Because I always miss my station

Another great album - dean wareham, joanna gruesome, lonely tourist, dorotea, the chills, manhattan love suicides & spearmint are all highlights but the whole lot is pretty darn great really martin kiosk

The greatest to ever do it, do it again! Sometimes lush as a warm blanket, sometimes all the angles of a dance party, always suspended in and out of time _hopskipjump
