Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, is this the way they say the future's meant to feel
Or just twenty-thousand people standing in a field?
And I don't quite understand just what this feeling is
But that's okay 'cause we're all sorted out for E's and wizz
And tell me when the spaceship lands
'Cause all this has just got to mean something-ing, oh
[Chorus]
In the middle of the night
It feels alright, but then, tomorrow morning
Ooh, ooh, then you come down
[Verse 2]
Oh, yeah, the pirate radio told us what was going down
Got the tickets from some fucked up bloke in Camden Town
Oh, and no one seems to know exactly where it is
But that's okay 'cause we're all sorted out for E's and wizz
At 4 o'clock, the normal world seems very, very, very far away-ay
Alright
[Chorus]
In the middle of the night
It feels alright, but then, tomorrow morning
Ooh, ooh, then you come down
[Bridge]
Just keep on moving
[Verse 3]
Everybody asks your name
They say we're all the same, and now it's, "Nice one, geezer"
That's as far as the conversation went
I lost my friends, I dance alone, it's 6 o'clock, I wanna go home
But it's, "No way, not today"
Makes you wonder what it meant, and, uh
And this hollow feeling grows and grows and grows and grows
And you want to call your mother and say
"Mother, I can never come home again
'Cause I've seem to have left an important part of my brain somewhere
Somewhere in a field in Hampshire," alright
[Chorus]
In the middle of the night
It feels alright, but then, tomorrow morning
Ooh, ooh, then you come down
Ooh, ooh, then you come down
Ooh, what if you never come down?
