lyrics

We crashed into a colony on a planet they called “New Mars”
We stumbled through the rocks and plants under two great Sun-like stars
We slept a restless slumber and we grabbed each other’s hands,
We opened up the champagne and we toasted those left behind.

We...we were wasted, beautiful, arrogant and charmed,
And one day we’ll be sainted, babe, one day we’ll be gods.

Fifteen years later, while returning back to Earth
She turned and said “I missed you, but who knows what it’s worth?”

We...we were wasted, beautiful, arrogant and charmed,
And one day we’ll be sainted, babe, one day we’ll be gods.

Beyond the walls of Lancashire, amongst the bricks and dust
There are libraries and instruments, put there just for us,
Somewhere in North London, now, behind the prison walls,
There’s a thing that’s always swinging, it will swing for evermore.

We...we were wasted, beautiful, arrogant and charmed,
And one day we’ll be sainted, babe, one day we’ll be gods.

We...we were wasted, beautiful, arrogant and charmed,
And one day we’ll be sainted, babe, one day we’ll be gods.
