Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Transport
Motorways and tramlines
Starting and then stopping
Taking off and landing
[Verse 2]
The emptiest of feelings
Disappointed people, yeah
Clinging on to bottles
'Cause when it comes it's so, so, so disappointing
[Verse 3]
Let down and hanging around
Crushed like a bug in the ground
I say let down and hanging around
[Verse 4]
Shell smashed
Juices flowing, wings twitch
Legs are going
Don't get sentimental, no
It always ends up drivel
[Verse 5]
One day
One day, I'm gonna
I'm gonna grow wings
It's a chemical reaction
Hysterical and useless
Hysterical and
[Verse 6]
Let down and hanging around, eh
Crushed like a bug in the ground
I say let down and hanging around, eh
[Verse 7]
Let down again
Let down again
Let down again
[Verse 8]
You know, you know where you are with
You know where you are with
Floor collapsing, floating, bouncing back
[Verse 9]
One day
One day, I'm gonna grow wings
It's a chemical reaction
Hysterical and useless
[Verse 10]
I say let down and hanging around
Crushed, crushed like a bug in the ground
Let down and hanging around
[Verse 11]
Let down again
Let down again
Let down again
