PHILOSOPHICAL MAN

Driving back to London on a spring Sunday evening
Wishing I was staying in the place I was leaving
Sunset in the mirror it looks so fine
Masters of the universe get back to the weekly grind

Switch to automatic, drive the world from your mind
Utopia is easier if you follow the signs
This brave new world is getting out of hand
Take the boy out of the city not the countryside out of the man
And I know what I am, I’m a Philosophical Man

And the speed camera that took my picture made me feel so grateful
Because it proved that I still existed
Think I know what I am, I’m a Philosophical Man

Put your foot down baby if you know where you’re going
Put your foot down baby you’re the queen of the road
But you’re stuck on the M25 of the soul
And your satellite navigation system is broken – beep beep yeah

Driving back to London on a spring Sunday evening
Wishing I was staying in the place I was leaving
Accidents diversions and emergency plans
Nothing’s going to stop me I’m a Hammersmith M4 man
And I think therefore I am a Philosophical Man

And the speed camera that took my picture
Made me feel so god damned grateful that I still existed
Think I know what I am, I’m a Philosophical Man
Think I know what I am, I’m a Philosophical Man
And I think therefore I am a Philosophical Man
And I think therefore I am a Philosophical Man
