Clockwork Train

I love to watch this things
They're together and together in large, dark packs

There's a buzz going 'round
But it missed me out
Like a distant sound of a siren
Which was too far away

I regret to inform
I cannot be there for the latest storm in a teacup
There's a change from today

So get another driver for your clockwork train
'Cause I'm taking time out of mind
Get another driver for your clockwork train
I resign from your line

If I miss the alarm, I will just sleep in
'Cause it does know I'm in the long run
When the bandwagon's gone
If you scream out the date, it will make no odds
So will still be late for my funeral
Please don't wait for too long

Get another driver for your clockwork train
I have done my time circle line
Get another driver for your clockwork train
From now on, I am gone

Signal turn to red, please do not drag me from my bed
You heard what Dr. Beeching said
You're closing down
Nothing on the rails, but the sleepers now
I can not hear a sound, I will not be around

Get another driver for your clockwork train
I have done my time circle line
Get another driver for your clockwork train
From now on, I have gone
