> [@Made in Macau](#): > > Baby are you travelling on the ‘One after 9:09’ I must point out that the correct lyric is " **my baby says she’s** travelling on the “One after 909” (actual title, with the fact that 909 refers to 9:09 being implied only). How about the Who’s “5:15”, from the _Quadrophenia_ album? ---
