HALF THE BUSES DO NOT EXIST

lyrics
(half the buses) Route seventeen from Burgos stopped running in eighty-nine The ferry from the middle leg is a company that folded And the timetable in his hand is a document of a country That has not existed in the shape he wrote it down Half the buses do not exist (do not exist) Not any more, do not exist I checked all of them, do not exist Do not exist Do not exist, not exist, do not exist, not exist I am going to walk the parts that closed and call it the route Do not exist, not exist, do not exist, not exist Because he planned a journey and the planning was the point (exposed) Mum says he would think I was mad. She is completely right. He would have said it is a waste of money and a waste of leave. And he would have wanted every single photograph. Every one. (BUILD 16 BARS, HARDEST DROP) Do not exist, not exist, do not exist, not exist I am going to walk the parts that closed and call it the route Do not exist, not exist, do not exist, not exist Because he planned a journey and the planning was the point (every one...)
