Turns out, watching the new Alien film a few scant hours before a lengthy car trip to the Home Counties can have... interesting effects on your mental processes. Or mine, at least.
lyrics
Late night, bright start,
Five hours' sleep,
Can't stop, can't rest,
Got to keep on going,
Keep the demons in my eyes from showing,
I can't anticipate
What's waiting for us
At our destination,
Look sharp, pop quiz,
My little eye,
I'm out, no clue,
Everything that I envisage
Feels like it's gonna burst out of my ribcage,
Remind me
I am not the kind
For films where everybody dies,
Wake up, look out,
Ten miles away,
Look fresh, sit straight,
No-one can say I'm sleepy,
God, that dream was getting rather creepy,
Now I recall
Why I did not enjoy
The previous film at all...
