Betelgeuse Songtext

von King Creosote

Fix the shortest month
Fix my magnetic north
Oh my bipolar crash, squeezed the arctic air out of my lungs

Drop off the key
For my boat has sailed to Bolivia
And I may not be back in one piece.
Peace at last for me
Peace at last for me

It's taken my favourite month
To realign the stars
Oh I have travelled far
To douse the astro fire within my heart
Drop off the radar screen
My ship has set course for the space in between Orion's Belt and Betelgeuse
I may not be back
I may not be back,
Believe me.
Peace at last, please.

For peace at last, a last minute plea
For peace at last, a last minute plea
For peace at last, a last minute plea

It took the shortest month
To fix my magnetic north
Oh my bipolar crash, you've squeezed the arctic air out of my lungs.
Drop off the key,
For my boat has sailed to Bolivia
And I may not be back in one piece.

That's peace at last, for me.
Peace at last, for me. Please.

For peace at last, a last minute plea.
