Betelgeuse Lyrics by King Creosote

Astronaut Meets Appleman

2016

Fix the shortest month
Fix my magnetic north
Oh my bipolar crash, squeezed the arctic air out of my lungs
Drop off the key
For my boat has sailed to Bolivia
And I may not be back in one piece
Peace at last for me
Peace at last for me
It's taken my favourite month
To realign the stars
Oh I have travelled far
To douse the astro fire within my heart
Drop off the radar screen
My ship has set course for the space in between Orion's Belt and Betelgeuse
I may not be back
I may not be back
Believe me
Peace at last, please
For peace at last, a last minute plea
For peace at last, a last minute plea
For peace at last, a last minute plea
It took the shortest month
To fix my magnetic north
Oh my bipolar crash, you've squeezed the arctic air out of my lungs
Drop off the key
For my boat has sailed to Bolivia
And I may not be back in one piece
That's peace at last, for me
Peace at last, for me. Please
For peace at last, a last minute plea
