The Triffids - Suntrapper lyrics

Driver let me tell you a secret A secret in the shape of a song Heard something move in the dark outside I lay awake hardly breathing Shaking all night long It came out of the southern sky It drove into our humble town We lay our hands upon its side My sister she laid her body down She was gone gone gone She was gone gone gone I was born 20 miles from here I've never seen anything else But that night I saw tall buildings Made of gla** and a million other pictures (of all the faces) And she was gone gone gone She was gone gone gone She was gone gone gone Suntrapper took her away A sparrow flew against the pane of gla** People came running all around They moved from all directions Ground opened up and the trees came down I pulled the car to the side of the road Checked all directions on a tourist map Overhead 747 jet engines Xxxxx ready for track And she was gone gone gone She was gone gone gone She was gone gone gone Suntrapper took her away
