Robert Pollard - Subspace Biographies

Has there been a break today,
Stoned comedian Ringo?
Should I put the plates away?
Captain, are you sure they're coming in?

I am quail and quasar
I picked you up on radar

I do my job each day
Empties crushed and filed away
And there is nothing worse th'n
An undetermined person
Can I abuse you please it
In my subspace biographies?
