Far Away. Calling to you!

Verse 1

The family sits round the TV screen, on a normal day or so it seems.

Daddy’s in the corner and the dog’s asleep. Mom does a knitting while Bobby sits and dreams.

The TV stalls and there’s that face. Doesn’t look good, so out of place.

Then he tells the human race: ‘Too Late!’

Chorus 1

Three Minutes is all you’ve got. Three Minutes is not a lot.

To tell you all that I’d like to say. Three Minutes is all today!

Excuse me if I’m not quite real. A matter made of solid steel.

All the high-class have left this place. They’re all out in outer space.

Three Minutes.

Verse 2

The Family sits round the TV screen, on a neutron day they sit and scream.

Daddy’s in the corner and has turned to dust. Mom is not there and Bobby is only just.

The TV stalls and there’s that face. Doesn’t look good, so out of place.

Then he tells the human race: ‘Too Late!’

Chorus 2

Three Minutes …

Chorus 3

Three Minutes is all you’ve got. Three Minutes is not a lot.

To tell you all that I’d like to say. Three Minutes is all today! Look out! …. Just a minute! ….

No-oh-oh-oh-oh … Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two …
