When I Hear Trains
When I hear trains
I wonder who's leaving
I wonder who's leaving
And who's left behind
Jet planes above me and all I can think
Is how can they do that, is God on their wings
Flying so high there, surrounded by clouds
Some having cocktails and lie right out loud
But when I hear trains
I wonder who's leaving
I wonder who's leaving
And who's left behind
Big silver greyhounds with big silver grills
Move like the grey whales with blowholes of steel
I can't help but thinking those people look trapped
Pushed on like salmon
And peeled off shrink-wrapped
But when I hear trains
I wonder who's leaving
I wonder who's leaving
And who's left behind
Cars speeding by me, it's just like a race
Fighting for power in a 10-foot wide space
Horns just a blarin', lipstick and smoke
Radios blastin' a song or a joke
But when I hear trains
I wonder who's leaving
I wonder who's leaving
And who's left behind
When I hear trains
I wonder who's leaving
I wonder who's leaving
And who's left behind
I wonder who's leaving
I wonder who's leaving
And who's left behind
Jet planes above me and all I can think
Is how can they do that, is God on their wings
Flying so high there, surrounded by clouds
Some having cocktails and lie right out loud
But when I hear trains
I wonder who's leaving
I wonder who's leaving
And who's left behind
Big silver greyhounds with big silver grills
Move like the grey whales with blowholes of steel
I can't help but thinking those people look trapped
Pushed on like salmon
And peeled off shrink-wrapped
But when I hear trains
I wonder who's leaving
I wonder who's leaving
And who's left behind
Cars speeding by me, it's just like a race
Fighting for power in a 10-foot wide space
Horns just a blarin', lipstick and smoke
Radios blastin' a song or a joke
But when I hear trains
I wonder who's leaving
I wonder who's leaving
And who's left behind
When I hear trains
I wonder who's leaving
I wonder who's leaving
And who's left behind
