Take the train,

Go separate ways,

And leave it long forgotten.

I'll hang my hat, and

I won't be back.

On my way out,

I'm feeling lame.

Am I to blame?

Or am I just too jaded?

And I won't be back,

what'd ya think of that?



When it feels like life's wastin' away,

I can say: that when

There's something on my mind,

It takes my concentration.

Just wanna lay it on the line,

Avoid all confrontation.

I'm gonna say this one more time

for all my generation,

you'll never, ever pull my lever

not today and not forever

(not today and not forever)



Take the fame

And change my name

Because my jacket's faded

And I'll change my hat

No we can't have that

(you'll be looking at a brand new cat)

It's all made up.

I've had enough

Of this circulation.

If you write me back,

I'll tell you where it's at.
