Down In The Tube Station At Midnight - The Jam[00:00:01]

The distant echo -[00:00:27]

Of faraway voices boarding faraway trains[00:00:29]

To take them home to[00:00:34]

The ones that they love and who love them forever[00:00:37]

The glazed dirty steps - repeat my own and reflect my thoughts[00:00:43]

Cold and uninviting partially naked[00:00:52]

Except for toffee wrapers and this morning's paper[00:00:56]

Mr Jones got run down[00:01:00]

Headlines of death and sorrow - they tell of tomorrow[00:01:03]

Madmen on the rampage[00:01:05]

And I'm down in the tube station at midnight[00:01:08]

I fumble for change - and pull out the Queen[00:01:20]

Smiling beguiling[00:01:25]

I put in the money and pull out a plum[00:01:28]

Behind me[00:01:33]

Whispers in the shadows - gruff blazing voices[00:01:37]

Hating waiting[00:01:42]

"Hey boy" they shout - "have you got any money "[00:01:46]

And I said - "I've a little money and a take away curry [00:01:49]

I'm on my way home to my wife [00:01:53]

She'll be lining up the cutlery [00:01:56]

You know she's expecting me[00:01:58]

Polishing the glasses and pulling out the cork"[00:01:59]

And I'm down in the tube station at midnight[00:02:02]

I first felt a fist and then a kick[00:02:14]

I could now smell their breath[00:02:18]

They smelt of pubs and Wormwood Scrubs[00:02:22]

And too many right wing meetings[00:02:27]

My life swam around me[00:02:30]

It took a look and drowned me in its own existence[00:02:33]

The smell of brown leather[00:02:39]

It blended in with the weather[00:02:41]

It filled my eyes ears nose and mouth[00:02:44]

It blocked all my senses[00:02:46]

Couldn't see hear speak any longer[00:02:47]

And I'm down in the tube station at midnight[00:02:50]

I said I was down in the tube station at midnight[00:02:55]

The last thing that I saw[00:03:05]

As I lay there on the floor[00:03:07]

Was "Jesus Saves" painted by an atheist nutter[00:03:09]

And a British Rail poster read "Have an Awayday - a cheap holiday -[00:03:11]

Do it today "[00:03:16]

I glanced back on my life[00:03:17]

And thought about my wife[00:03:18]

'Cause they took the keys - and she'll think it's me[00:03:19]

And I'm down in the tube station at midnight[00:03:22]

The wine will be flat and the curry's gone cold[00:03:25]

I'm down in the tube station at midnight[00:03:28]

Don't want to go down in a tube station at midnight[00:03:32]

Don't want to go down in a tube station at midnight[00:03:38]
