|
Will you shut up, |
|
I've got something to say, |
|
But you just stand there laughing right in my face. |
|
Don't waste my time, |
|
And I won't waste yours, |
|
But when you're eyes-deep slurring |
|
You won't know whether to call, |
|
'Cause you never gave much thought to me at all. |
|
|
|
You're sleeping on a subway train |
|
Speeding slowly away. |
|
Your destination never came |
|
Now there's nothing to pay. |
|
A different side of your brain is speeding slowly away. |
|
|
|
I've seen your face, |
|
I know you're not for real. |
|
Who'd have thought you'd be caught |
|
Under the wheels? |
|
You've been stubbed out, |
|
Like, a cigarette. |
|
You're in the gutter fluttering, |
|
Spat out from the mouth |
|
Of old barrels' dregs, no-one likes a bitter taste. |
|
|
|
You're sleeping on a subway train |
|
Speeding slowly away. |
|
Your destination never came |
|
Now there's nothing to pay. |
|
A different side of your brain is speeding slowly away, |
|
Slowly away. |
|
|
|
You've woken on a derailed train, |
|
Speeding slowly away. |
|
Handcuffed to your bitter end, |
|
There's always someone to pay, |
|
Always turns out that way, |
|
Speeding slowly away, |
|
Slowly away, |
|
Speeding slowly away, |
