SINGER: Jethro Tull

SONG:Locomotive Breath

In the shuffling madness
of the locomotive breath,
runs the all - time loser,
headlong to his death.
he feels the piston scraping -
steam breaking on his brow -
old charlie stole the handle and
the train it won't stop going-
no way to slow down.
he sees his children jumping off
at the stations - one by one.
his woman and his best friend -
in bed and having fun.
he's crawling down the corridor
on his hands and knees-
old charlie stole the handle and
the train it won't stop going -
no way to slow down.
he hears the silence howling -
catches angels as they fall.
and the all-time winner
has got him by the balls.
he picks up gideons bible -
open at page one -
god he stole the handle and
the train won't stop going -
no way to slow down.
