Stop This Train (Top Gear Session) - Kevin Ayers[00:00:00]
Written by:Kevin Ayers[00:00:03]
On a railway train to anywhere[00:00:43]
Something happened finally[00:00:47]
The driver said he saw no station[00:00:50]
And we were riding aimlessly[00:00:53]
The train was filled with sleeping passengers[00:00:57]
Going nowhere for the ride[00:01:00]
Spoken whispers filled the carriages[00:01:04]
No one cared to look outside[00:01:07]
Conversation aimed at anyone[00:01:11]
Bouncing questions off the wall[00:01:14]
Except for two excited children[00:01:18]
Burning caterpillars in the hall[00:01:21]
All at once I got quite frightened[00:01:25]
Standing up I gave a shout[00:01:28]
See a station just in front of me[00:01:32]
Stop this train and let me out[00:01:35]
The driver smiled and shook his head for me[00:02:03]
Quotthis train don't stop for anyone[00:02:06]
And if you want to leave this railway line[00:02:10]
You'll have to jump off on your own[00:02:13]
Someone came and gave me sandwiches[00:02:17]
Saying that I looked unwell[00:02:20]
He took my pulse and he gave it back to me[00:02:24]
And then he hit me with his bell[00:02:27]
He made a speech to all the passengers[00:02:45]
He said I've been a place today[00:02:48]
And anyone who'd care to come with me[00:02:52]
Step outside and walk this way[00:02:55]
Inside the seats were warm and comfortable[00:02:59]
Outside the train was wild and strange[00:03:03]
I said yes sir I'd like to come with you[00:03:06]
It's really time I made a change[00:03:10]
I left my seat and walked up front with him[00:03:13]
And he began to push the door[00:03:17]
I looked outside but it nearly blinded me[00:03:20]
I'd never seen such light before[00:03:24]
