On a railway train to anywhere [00:00:44]
Something happened finally [00:00:48]
The driver said he saw no station [00:00:52]
And we were riding aimlessly [00:00:57]
The train was filled with sleeping passengers [00:01:01]
Going nowhere for the ride [00:01:05]
Spoken whispers filled the carriages [00:01:09]
No one cared to look outside [00:01:13]
Conversation aimed at anyone [00:01:17]
Bouncing questions off the wall [00:01:22]
Except for two excited children [00:01:26]
Burning caterpillars in the hall [00:01:30]
All at once, I got quite frightened [00:01:35]
Standing up, I gave a shout! [00:01:39]
"I see a station just in front of me [00:01:43]
Stop this train and let me out [00:01:47]
The driver smiled and shook his head for me [00:02:25]
"This train don't stop for anyone [00:02:29]
And, if you want to leave this railway line [00:02:34]
You'll have to jump off on your own [00:02:38]
Someone came and gave me sandwiches [00:02:42]
Saying that I looked unwell [00:02:47]
He took my pulse and he gave it back to me [00:02:51]
And then he hit me with his bell [00:02:55]
He made a speech to all the passengers [00:03:33]
He said "I've been a place today [00:03:37]
And anyone who'd care to come with me [00:03:41]
Step outside and walk this way [00:03:45]
Inside the seats were warm and comfortable [00:03:50]
Outside the train was wild and strange [00:03:54]
I said, "Yes, sir, I'd like to come with you [00:03:58]
It's really time I made a change [00:04:02]
I left my seat and walked up front with him [00:04:07]
And he began to push the door [00:04:11]
I looked outside, but it nearly blinded me [00:04:15]
I'd never seen such light before[00:04:19]
