Already Home

Already Home - Alex the Astronaut

Bus was late

I don't care I guess it's something to say

Ride around with the prams out of daycare

Complain suited crowds block the way

Slip to a seat right at the back

And watch the clouds bleed to black

And why race

I'll get home sometime like yesterday

My pay's been late a couple of days

Don't complain trade some

Sleep for some patience

Have a snack and just relax

Your back needs a break

And I hope you'll be already home

And I hope you'll be already home

What's this game

We run around and deal out our names

Build castles in the sand and wash away

Slip my jumper on

I think winter's on it's way

It's getting late

It's a short walk from the stop to our place

My hands are cold the shops light the way

But I'll walk the other way tomorrow again

And I hope you'll be already home

And I hope you'll be already home

And the kids in their school uniform

Get off at the same time as me

I offer them my good luck

Hope they're happy when they're sleeping

Oh a weepy little thing

Doesn't like the peak bus on a weekday

I slide over on my seat

So that her dad can rest his feet

And there's billionaires for president

And parking fines at hospitals

I'm not that only one that knows

I brush the crumbs all off my clothes

And I hope you'll be already home

And I hope you'll be already home

And I hope you'll be already home

And I hope you'll be already home
