[Verse 1]

Hey, you, how is your life?

Has something in you died?

Please don't think me rude

I've got a good excuse

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, 'cause I've been ticking like a time bomb

I've bit my tongue so much it's all gone

My hands are tied and I've become so numb

So numb, so numb, so numb

[Chorus]

Sending out a message to the corners of the universe

A mayday from mother earth

The situation's so much worse than I thought

Can you hear the boy stood in the middle of the Milky Way

From ten billion miles away?

This is not where I belong

Never was, take me home

[Verse 2]

Come dance while we still can

'Cause the plans they have for man ain't no good

I tried to warn you all, you all, you all

[Pre-Chorus]

'Cause I've been ticking like a time bomb

I've bit my tongue so much it's all gone

My hands are tied and I've become so numb

So numb, so numb, so numb

[Chorus]

Sending out a message to the corners of the universe

A mayday from mother earth

The situation's so much worse than I thought

Can you hear the boy stood in the middle of the Milky Way

From ten billion miles away?

This is not where I belong

Never was, take me home

[Instrumental bridge]

[Chorus]

Sending out a message to the corners of the universe

A mayday from mother earth

The situation's so much worse than I thought

Can you hear the boy stood in the middle of the Milky Way

From ten billion miles away?

This is not where I belong

Never was, take me home
