Into the dark wide open, window upon the world

Steadily heading for removal, sooner or later

It's the last train to Venus

 

Hell bent upon departure, scheduled for demise

Readily treading towards fiasco, sometime tomorrow

 

Water levels are rising, CO2's are too

And by degrees see the seas waving

Come to take you all to the end of term ball

So put on your red shoes

 

Over event horizons not ever to return

Happy people on excursions to limbo, akimbo

The last train to Venus will be leaving from platform

42

 

Last train to Venus, all on board

Last train to Venus, mind the gap

Last train to Venus, take a seat with a view

Take your pick, get your kicks, this is curtains number six

 

Come on happy dreamers

Dance on board the last train to Venus

Gonna take you all to the end of term ball

So put on your red shoes

 

I see the Earth receding but nobody seems to care

They're all counting on alighting somewhere, anywhere
