Aeroplane Lyrics

Aeroplane lyrics

Shut down

Tangled up in your machinery

No sound

Just the faceless press of words and wheels

Surrounds me

Like molasses on my soles and eaves

Come out

Can anyone come out and play



All I want is an aeroplane

Rubber-banded with paper wings

All I want is to steal again

All I want is a wet dream, ice-cream

All I want is vanishing

All I want is God



Spit out

By an undeserving dumb and mad

Shipped down

With a pride of fagging earls and boys

Moved round

To a council flat in St. John's Wood

Come out

Can anyone come out and play



All I want is an aeroplane

Rubber-banded with paper wings

All I want is to steal again

All I want is a wet dream, ice-cream

All I want is vanishing

All I want is God



All I want is an aeroplane

Rubber-banded with paper wings

All I want is to steal again

All I want is a wet dream, ice-cream

All I want is vanishing

All I want is an afterglow

A forty-five on a gramophone

All I want is a thick skin, to grow into

Everything is vanishing

All I want is God
