I'm going home, tho home's where I've come from
I've got to know what's been going on
no mistakes got a mixtape of all my favourite songs
chose this day gotta escape and it won't be too long
'til the photograph by the phonograph and the faces that I see
will just climb down off their picturehooks and be staring back at me
I know all it takes is to hear those breaks and I know just where I'll be
I'll be right back in the garden with the moon and Sandy Martin
Great Western Way there's not been a day I've not been thinking of you
driving round in stolen cars
just say you'll stay tedious and grey and we'll be drinking partners
Not long ago the factory was strong
now they wanna know just what's going wrong
they build an estate where the kids play it's the same old song
gotta risk take what a pisstake and now it's almost gone
but in a photograph there's an olden craft and the faces of a team
consigned now to a library book now their engine's out of steam
and a sorry face they put in the place where a smile there once had been
but we'll be right back where it started when we move and it's departed
Great Western Way there's not been a day I've not been thinking of you
driving round in stolen cars
just say you'll stay tedious and grey and we'll be drinking partners
