Skinhead on the MBTA
All aboard
Now let me tell you a story of a big ole' skinhead
On a tragic and fateful day
He put ten cents in his pocket, kicked his wife and family
And went to ride on the MBTA
Did he ever return?
No, he never returned
And his fate is still unknown (Oi! Oi! Oi!)
He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston
He's the skinhead who never returned
Skinhead goes down to the Kendall Square Station
And he changes for Jamaica Plain
The conductor says "skinhead, I need a nickel"
Skinhead punches him in the brain
Did he ever return?
No, he never returned
And his fate is still unknown (Oi! Oi! Oi!)
He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston
He's the skinhead who never returned
Now all night long skinhead drives through the station
Thinking "what can I go and see?"
Can't afford to buy crack in Chelsea
Or a bundle in Roxbury
Did he ever return?
No, he never returned
And his fate is still unknown (Oi! Oi! Oi!)
He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston
He's a skinhead who never returned
Skinhead's wife goes to the Scollay Square Station
Everyday about a quarter past two
And through the open window she hands skinhead a grenade
As the train comes-a-rumbling through
Did he ever return?
No, he never returned
And his fate is still unknown (Oi! Oi! Oi!)
He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston
He's the skinhead who never returned
Now you citizens of Boston
Don't you think it's a scandal
How the skinhead stole the train?
So what about that fucking skin?
You fucking bum
Let me drive that fucking train!
Did he ever return?
No, he never returned
And his fate is still unknown (Oi! Oi! Oi!)
He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston
He's the skinhead who never returned
Did he ever return?
No, he never returned
And his fate is still unknown (Oi! Oi! Oi!)
He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston
He's the skinhead who never returned
He's the skinhead who never returned
He's the skinhead who never returned
I said the skin never returned
Did he ever return?
No, he never returned
And his fate is still unknown (Oi! Oi! Oi!)
He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston
He's the skinhead who never returned
Did he ever return?
No, he never returned
And his fate is still unknown
He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston
He's the skinhead who never returned
He's the skinhead who never returned
He's the skinhead who never returned
Now let me tell you a story of a big ole' skinhead
On a tragic and fateful day

He's the skinhead who never returned
He's the skinhead who never returned
