White Russian Galaxy Lyrics
Straight out of high school
Went into the jungle
Searching for Tarzan
Who might be dead.
You kick like a mule
Short of an oscar
And screaming blue murder
At newly weds.
Who knows what goes on in her pretty little head
Who knows what goes on in her pretty little head
Who knows?
You talk like a fish
In nonsensical bubbles
And blow the word 'bitch'
Through your smoke-ring.
You cause only trouble
And bring only suffering
Just get in the spaceship
And stop breeding.
Who knows what goes on in her pretty little head
Who knows what goes on in her pretty little head
Who knows?
Won't you tell me what
You never sing in church on Sunday
Why won't you ever
Go all the way.
You're floating towards heavenly hell
Hanging from the rafters
Like a church bell.
You're light years away from reality
Lonely
And lost in a White Russian galaxy.
Who knows?
Who knows
What goes on in her pretty little head?
Who knows what goes on?
Went into the jungle
Searching for Tarzan
Who might be dead.
Short of an oscar
And screaming blue murder
At newly weds.
Who knows what goes on in her pretty little head
Who knows?
In nonsensical bubbles
And blow the word 'bitch'
Through your smoke-ring.
And bring only suffering
Just get in the spaceship
And stop breeding.
Who knows what goes on in her pretty little head
Who knows?
You never sing in church on Sunday
Why won't you ever
Go all the way.
You're floating towards heavenly hell
Hanging from the rafters
Like a church bell.
You're light years away from reality
Lonely
And lost in a White Russian galaxy.
What goes on in her pretty little head?

Aww! This song is amazing! :D It's such a calming song, such lovely lyrics and his voice has such a nice tone to it! xx i bludy love the crimea! they're ace! :D
a 'white russian' is vodka and milk on the rocks, which could make this song about a girl who is wasted 'lost in a white russian galaxy'
these are the chords of my life, eh? this song is beautiful.
really really great song. I read an interview with Davey where he said he wrote it when he used to work in one of the big parks in London and always used to have to chuck out teenage girls who were pissed and bumming around. It does really capture the modern phenomenon of 'the waster' - lines like "you kick like a mule short of an oscar", and when he says "get in the space ship and stop bleeding" and "why won't you ever go all the way?" he's wondering what the could achieve if they put their minds to it. Not necessarily in a self-righteous way, but more like how many people are there in this country who like living in "a white russian galaxy" "light years away from reality" because they are turned that way through disillusionment with society? and what could they all do if they put their minds to it? they could raise hell! (hell being heavenly as Davey says)
