Refrain
Last night he could not make it
He tried hard but he could not make it
Last night he could not make it

Verse 1
On a holiday
So many miles
Looking for a place to stay
Near some friendly star
He found this mote
And now we wonder where we are
How could this so great
Turn so shitty
He ended up in army crates
And photographs in files
His tiny boat
Sparked as he turned to graze our city

Pre-Chorus
I started driving on the motorway
I was feeling down

Refrain
Last night he could not make it
Last night he could not make it
He tried hard but he could not make it
Last night he could not make...

Verse 2
On a holiday
So many miles
Looking for a place to stay
Near some friendly star
He found this mote
And now we wonder
How could this so great
Turn so shit
He ended up in army crates
And photographs in files
His tiny boat
Sparked as he grazed it

Refrain
Last night he could not make it
He tried hard but he could not make it
Last night he could not make it
He tried hard but he could not make it

Outro
He started heading for the motorway
And he came right now
He started heading for the motorway
And he came right now
He started heading for the motorway
And he came right now
He started heading for the motorway
And he came right now
He started heading for the motorway
And he came right now
He started heading for the motorway
And he came right now
He started heading for the motorway
And he came right now

Biography

edit bio
“In 1988, the Pixies sounded like no other band. By 1991, every band sounded like the Pixies.”

Pixies are an American alternative rock band which formed in Boston, Massachusetts, United States in 1986. The band consists of Charles (Black Francis) Thompson IV (vocals, guitar; also known as ‘’Frank Black’‘), Joey Santiago (lead guitar) and David Lovering (drums). Until 2013, the band also featured Kim Deal on bass and vocals. The band officially split in 1993 and reunited in 2004. They went on hiatus in 2007, with each band member pursuing projects of their own, only to reunite in 2009, with the announcement of a new tour commencing in Europe that summer.

The band’s style of alternative rock music is heavily influenced by punk and surf rock, and while highly melodic, is capable of being tremendously abrasive at the same time. Francis is the Pixies’ primary songwriter and singer and has a distinctly desperate, yowling delivery. He has typically written cryptic songs about offbeat subjects, such as UFOs and surrealism. References to mental instability, violent Biblical imagery, and physical injury feature in many of the band’s songs.
