Oh! Oh! Oh! it’s a lovely war,
Who wouldn’t be a soldier eh?
Oh! It’s a shame to take the pay.
As soon as reveille is gone
We feel just as heavy as lead,
But we never get up till the sergeant brings
Our breakfast up to bed
People all over the world (everybody)
Join hands (join)
Start a love train, love train
People all over the world (all the world, now)
Join hands (love ride)
Start a love train (love ride), love train
Crazy, but that’s how it goes
Millions of people living as foes
Maybe it’s not too late
To learn how to love, and forget how to hate
Mental wounds not healing
Life’s a bitter shame
I’m goin’ off the rails on a crazy train
And the train conductor said:
"Take a break, Driver 8
Driver 8, take a break
We can reach our destination
But it’s still a ways away…"
This old engine makes it on time,
Leaves Central Station bout a quarter to nine.
Hits River Junction at seventeen to,
At a quarter to ten you know it’s trav’lin again.
Drivin’ that train, high on cocaine,
Casey Jones you better watch your speed.
Trouble ahead, trouble behind,
And you know that notion just crossed my mind.
Engine, Engine, Number Nine,
On the New York transit line,
If my train goes off the track,
Pick it up! Pick it up! Pick it up!
Back on the scene,
Crispy and clean,
You can try,
But then why,
Cause you can’t intervene.
We be the outcast,
Down for the settle.
Won’t play the rock,
Won’t play the pebble.
Nine hundred thousand tons of steel
Made to roll
Her brakes don’t work and this grade’s so steep
Her engine’s sure to blow
The bridge holds back the sky
Can’t hold back what’s inside
And the train above me
Sounds like the music in my head
My thoughts are undecided
I think it so I hide it
And the train rushes past
Like a day gone too fast
Runaway train never going back
Wrong way on a one way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I’m neither here nor there
Can you help me remember how to smile
Make it somehow all seem worthwhile
How on earth did I get so jaded
Life’s mystery seems so faded
There’s a little black train a comin’
And it may be here tonight.
There’s a little black train a comin’
You better set your business right.
While the train rolled onward, a husband sat in tears,
Thinking of the happiness of just a few short years.
Baby’s face brings pictures of a cherished hope that’s dead,
But baby’s cries can’t waken her in the baggage coach ahead.
So I’ve got eyes, ears, nose, mouth
Cheeks and chin,
And they’re all part of one fine face.
I’ve got me ten fine toes to wiggle in the sand.
Lots of idle fingers snap to my command.
A lively pair of heels that kick to beat the band.
Contemplatin’ nature can be fascinatin’.
Add to these a nose that I can thumb,
And a mouth by gum have I,
To tell the whole darn world if you don’t happen to like it deal me out,
Thankyou kindly Pass Me By
Head, shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes
Head, shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes
and eyes and ears and mouth and nose,
Head, shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes!
I put my hand on myself,
Das ist das, here point to head
Das ist mein thinkboxer, oh, mama, dear!
Thinkboxer, thinkboxer, ink-y-dink-y-doo!
Das ist was I learned in school! Ja! Ja!
When I was back there in seminary school,
There was a person who put forth the proposition
You can petition the Lord with prayer
Our father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name,
Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
I’ve lost and I’ve gained, while I was thinking
You cut off my hands when I wanted to twist
If you know how to dance to Boney Maroney
He’s doin’ the ballet on both of his wrists
B-b-burn the skin off and climb the roof tops
Thy will be done
B-b-bite the nose off and make it the most of
King, kingdom, kingdom, kingdom
And Jesus was a sailor
When he walked upon the water
And he spent a long time watching
From his lonely wooden tower
And when he knew for certain
Only drowning men could see him
He said “All men will be sailors then
Until the sea shall free them”
But he himself was broken
Long before the sky would open
Forsaken, almost human
He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone
And you want to travel with him
And you want to travel blind
And you think maybe you’ll trust him
For he’s touched your perfect body with his mind.
Travelin’ for Jesus night and day,
Travelin’ for Jesus night and day,
Out on the rolling sea when Jesus speak to me,
Out on the rolling sea when he comes.
