With the current thread on this song, I went back and
reread the lyrics and it seems to me:
a) it is written by the starfarer while he is still in space.
i.e. he says his girlfriend is 60 now and long gone by the time
he returns to earth. Hence the android must be on board.
b) its some of the finest damn lyrics I've ever read. Inspired
Martyn
Even this doggerel that pours from my pen
Has just been written by another twenty telepathic men
