"Science Fiction" lyrics

Aliens have landed
I don't know what they've demanded but the Earth will never be the same again
They said: "Take us to your leader," you know, the usual procedure
They demolished all our barricades
And then I woke up and the world was just the same as it was yesterday
We broke up but I still call your name, like I do every day

And, in the not-so-distant future, the world's run by a computer
That takes care of every single thing we need
But, if you've seen any movie, you'll know things never go smoothly
And we'll face a huge disaster, guaranteed
And then I woke up and the world was just the same as it was yesterday
We broke up but I still call your name, like I do every day

And I'd do anything, anything, anything, anything to stop myself from thinking about you
Yes, I'd do anything, anything, anything, anything to stop myself from thinking about you

And I really need to shake off this addiction but, instead, I'm sat here watching science fiction
I took this retro spaceship for an interstellar day trip and I went as fast as Einstein would allow
It belongs to some mad scientist; I don't know how he acquired it but a time machine would suit me better now
So I could wake up and have the world be just the same as it was yesterday
We didn't break up and you still call my name, you never went away

And I'd do anything, anything, anything, anything to stop myself from thinking about you
Yes, I'd do anything, anything, anything, anything to stop myself from thinking about you
Yes, I'd do anything, anything, anything, anything to stop myself from thinking about you
Yes, I'd do anything, anything, anything, anything to stop myself from thinking about you
Oh
