Gotta Get Offa This Train
I’m on a runaway freight train, jumping offa the rails all over the place
Runaway freight train moving at a breakneck pace
Who’s in charge here? I don’t see no engineer, no
It’s a runaway freight train in a madcap race
We're barreling blindly out of control, losing my mind, my, boy, my soul
One bad day turns into another and another and another and another
I need to stop!
‘Cause I gotta get offa this train, yeah, turning into the fire
Gotta get offa this train, yeah, coming down to the wire
Got to get offa this train, trouble’s just around the bend
And I might be riding to the bitter end on a runaway train
Oh, I’m under no illusions, this is going to hurt before we’re done
It’s a foregone conclusion, obvious as the noonday sun
I see a little problem here, it might be impossible to steer
This here runaway freight train when it’s on a midnight run
Oh, listen to the engine grind out bullshit lines about good times coming up [p ahead
Nothing but red lights, one right after the other and another and another and another
I need to stop!
‘Cause I gotta get offa this train, yeah, turning into the fire
Gotta get offa this train, yeah, coming down to the wire
Got to get offa this train, trouble’s right around the bend
And I might be riding to the bitter end on a runaway train
Well, the end of the line’s coming up too fast, just passed the point of no return
And there's one bad day right after another and another and another and another
Just need to stop
‘Cause I gotta get offa this train, yeah, turning into the fire
Gotta get offa this train, yeah, coming down to the wire
Got to get offa this train, trouble waits around the bend
And It looks like we’re riding to the bitter end, oh, got to get offa this
Gotta get offa this train, it’s down to the wire, oh
I just gotta get off, gotta get off, stop staring into that fire
C’mon, gotta get off the train, trouble’s round the bend, round the bend
And we’re riding to the bitter end
Unless I get ready to pull the throttle down, turn this bitch around
Gotta get back gotta get back to the right track, gotta get offa this train
