I have boarded the train (I've snuck in with no ticket) And there are thoughts that won’t leave me alone. I wish for the day when the driver will say: "You're not meant for this ride; You've no money, no manners You're a poor excuse of a man; Fix your collar, keep your chin up, Get a job so we won't suffer Because this ride's a luxury. If you have any qualms and/or disqualifications Then walk. I have left the station I have dropped off the docket So please just leave me to hang and to carry.

The Train
