Down by the river we met with empty hands 
By the boarded shelter 
We turned our backs to the desert land 
There must be something out there 
A shock to kill the boredom 
As the smoke kicked high from the factory fires 
They never heard the siren calling 
It takes one 
To make one 
It takes time 
To kill time 
Board this train, board this train to nowhere 
Board this train, board this train to nowhere 
Last by the river we left with empty hands 
By the border station 
We were blown by the western wind too long 
There must be something out there 
A shock to kill the boredom 
As the smoke kicked high from the factory fires 
We never heard the siren calling 
It takes one 
To make one 
It takes time 
To kill time 
Board this train, board this train to nowhere 
Board this train, board this train to nowhere 
Board this train, board this train to nowhere 
Board this train, board this train to nowhere 
Stripped like wire, stripped left open and bare 
Board this train, board this train to nowhere
