Come live on an island
And in his day, in his day
There were seats on the train
You'd like to build a new island
Push it out, float along
Singing all your useless songs
Well we're drifting out in modern way
Drifting out on modern waves
Looking sideways, from some new tropic
Sprung up, shining, already obsolete
It was a sunset to remember
As we crossed the straits of Dover
You laughing and waving,
In your pin stripe, double breasted suit
(Me with my head in my hands)
Well we're drifting out in modern way
Drifting out on modern waves
The sky is black,
Sometimes it's baby blue
Don't fight it, don't run
This Island will come to you
The sky is black,
Sometimes though, it's baby blue
Don't fight it, don't run
This Island will come...
Come live on his island
And in his day, in his day
Everyone spoke the same
Come live on her island
And in her day, in her day
She knew the postman by name
OH FOR SHAME, FOR SHAME, FOR SHAME!
Well we're drifting out in modern way
Drifting out on modern waves
Well we're drifting out,
We're drifting out in 350 million modern ways
We'll I found Singularity
At the bottom of the Mail Online comments section
HAHAHA Laugh it up
We'll I found, joy, peace and understanding
I found it, in the comfort of my own home late at night
Just scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling...
Well I , well I know I've seen the TRUTH
And I don't need any of these so called experts' to tell me otherwise
I've touched God, I've seen Him in the palm of my hand
Well we're drifting out in modern ways,
We're drifting out in 350 million modern ways
Telling me, we're gonna be, in those sunlight uplands,
I don't know, I read somewhere, some place, on the side of a bus?

Come live on an island

Push it out, float along
Singing all your useless songs
Well we're drifting out in modern way
Drifting out on modern waves
Looking sideways, from some new tropic
Sprung up, shining, already obsolete
It was a sunset to remember

Well we're drifting out in modern way
Drifting out on modern waves

Don't fight it, don't run
This Island will come to you
The sky is black,

Don't fight it, don't run
