"I don't think that I can take it any more; this crazy war"

Bank Holiday or not, there are some traditions that I cannot change. But this is the first time in ages I have actually had a request for a track to be played on a Tacky Music Monday!

So, just for Alistair, here is the magnificently tacky Rah Band...

Rah Band - Clouds Across the Moon

"Good evening. This is the intergalactic operator. Can I help you?"
"Yes. I'm trying to reach flight commander P.R. Johnson, on Mars, flight 2-4-7"
"Very well, hold on please [beeping]. You're through!"
"Thank you operator!"

Hiya darlin' ! How are you doing?
Hey baby, were you sleeping?
Oh I'm sorry, but I've been really missing you!

Hi darlin' ! How's the weather?
Say baby, is that cold better now?
Oh I'm sorry, is there someone there with you?

Ooooh...since you went away, there's nothing goin' right!
I just can't sleep alone at night... I'm not ashamed to say
I badly need a friend...or it's the end.

Now, when I look at the cloud's across the moon.
Here in the night I just hope and pray that soon.
Oh baby, you'll hurry home to me.

Hi darlin', the kids say they love you.
Hey baby, is everything fine with you?
Please forgive me, but I'm trying not to cry...

Ooooh...I've had a million different offers on the phone.
But I just stay right here at home.
I don't think that I can take it any more; this crazy war.

Now, when I look at the cloud's across the moon.
Here in the night I just hope and pray that soon.
Oh darling, you'll hurry home to me.

"I'm sorry to interrupt your conversation, but we are
experiencing violent storm conditions in the asteroid belt at this time. We may lose this valuable deep space communication link. Please, be as brief as possible.
Thank you."

Ooooh...since you went away, there's nothing goin' right !
I just can't sleep alone at night... I'm not ashamed to say
I badly need a friend.. or it's...or it's...

"Hello?" "Hello operator?"
" Yes, i've seemed to have lost the connection! Could you try again please?"
-"I'm sorry, but I'm afraid we've lost contact with Mars 2-4-7 at this time."

"Ok. Well thank you very much...
I'll...I'll try again next year...next year...next year...next year..."
