“Former Airline” is the B-side to the 1979 single A Question of Degree. It was included in the 1989 and 1994 reissues of Chairs Missing, but was removed from the 2006 reissue because the band felt it diluted the “conceptual clarity of the original statements”.
Former Airline Lyrics
When you reach the point
Is it different enough?
Tell me what it's like when you reach the point
When you draw the line
Is it straight enough?
Tell me what it's like when you draw the line
When you go too far
Is it near enough?
Tell me what it's like when you go too far
When you've seen too much
Is it almost the same?
Tell me what it's like when you've seen too much
When you know it all
Is it really there?
Tell me what it's like when you know it all
When you've had enough
Is it just the start?
Tell me what it's like when you've had enough
