Light At The End Of The Tunnel - From "Starlight Express"

Diesel is for unbelievers
Electricity is wrong

Steam has got the power to pull us along
There's a light at the end of the tunnel
There's a light at the end of the tunnel
The inside might be as black as the night
But there's a light at the end of the tunnel
There's a light at the end of the tunnel
The inside might be as black as the night
But at the end of the tunnel there's a light, het

It's the power of James Watt, the steaming Scot
It's the power
The man sho watched the pot and said
Hey, I've got a brilliant plot, when the steam is hot
It seems to make a lot of power

It could turn a wheel
Lots of power
It could drive it down a track
Clickety clack, clinkety clack
It could drive it with a beat
Choo-choo-choo
With enough left over for a
Whoo-whoo

He saw the light at the end of the tunnel
Oh, he saw the light at the end of the tunnel
Yeah, he saw the light
Thanks James Watt (thank you Mr Watt)
For watching the pot
He saw a light at the end of the tunnel, oh yes
He saw a light at the end of the tunnel
The inside might be s black as the night
But at the end of the tunnel there's a light (there's a light)

There are dark days ahead
When the power goes dead
When the oil runs dry
What can we try?
We could use the sunlight
But it don't shine at night
Nuclear fission leaves a nasty emission
Soon the pistons will be humming
Steam will have a second coming

We see light (at the end of the tunnel)
Oh, the light at the end of the tunnel
(We see the light at the end of the tunnel)
We see light, hey
Just dig a hole and haul out the coal
(We see the light at the end of the tunnel)
Haul out the coal
(We see the light at the end of the tunnel)
Can't you see the light, children?
(So let the water boil, goodbye to oil)
(At the end of the tunnel there's a light) Oh yes

We see the light at the end of the tunnel
We see the light at the end of the tunnel
When the Angel Gabriel blows his magic toot
We see the light at the end of the tunnel
We see the light at the end of the tunnel

We see the distant glee that tells that it's steam
At the end of the tunnel
There's a light
Oh oh oh oh
