A Lotta Locomotion

Rusty, you can't be serious
You'll go in, for the race?
You gotta be strong
I am strong
And belong
You gotta have speed
I have
No you need it!
What you need is a mixture of strength, of power and length
If you're gonna have pull where it counts

But Pearl, you said, you'd go with me
But that was ages ago!
I have to feel more
We have to feel more
We need to be certain, we need to be sure
I have to feel more
We have to feel more
We need to be certain we need to be sure

A lotta locomotion
That's what we need
From a locomotive who can take the lead
From the eastern ocean
To the western sea
Locomotion's gonna carry me
A lotta locomotion, that's what we need
If we are ever gonna get up speed
A lotta locomotion and the right approach
For there are lots of different kinds of coach

Like me, I'm Ashley, I'm the smoking car
I've tried to kick the habit but my inside's used to tar
I know if I don't give up I might choke or have a stroke
That scares me
And when I'm scared
Boy, I need a smoke
Buffy at your service, ever open wide
My microwave is cooking to warm you from inside
A lotta locomotion will do the trick
Come and bite my burgers, I'm hot and cheap and quick

My name is Dinah, I'm the dining car
I'll cook for you and listen while you lean upon my bar
I'll serve you with your dinner while the train goes loop the loop
Gee, I'm sorry gentlemen, I hope you wanted soup

A lotta locomotion
That's what we need
If we are ever gonna get up speed
From the eastern ocean
To the western sea
Locomotion's gonna carry me

My name's Pearl, I'm a brand new girl
My springs still bounce, my fans still whirl
Ain't gonna smoke, ain't gonna drink

What are you gonna do?

What do you think?
A lotta locomotion
Underneath the sun
Gotta try them all until
She finds the one
From the eastern ocean
To the coast out west

Gotta test them all
Until I find the best

A lotta locomotion, that's what we need
From a locomotive who can take the lead
From the eastern ocean
To the western sea
Don't stop the pistons stroking
Don't stop the firemen stoking

Don't make me give up smoking

Give up smoking?

You gotta be joking

Locomotion's gonna carry me
