walkabouts – northsea train lyrics
the rain crawls up the coast
i know you hate
this one-way chase
a drunk, his wife and her friend
the drunk tries to stand
the friend says lay right there
now it’s all tower blocks
and blood blue flags
and closed up shops
the guardhouse light turns off
as the rain stops cold
crawls back alone
they’re lining up the last suspects
beneath a rusty glow
the northsea train’s on time
northsea train
the procession is unsure
it’s full of strays
with mongrel names
they know not what they’ve done
and at least today
that’ll be okay
hooded coats in zigzag rows
draggin’ coal back to their homes
northsea train’s on time
northsea train
collecting pieces of us all
as if their cargo, will break our fall
northsea train’s on time
northsea train
vanquished from all
rhyme and duty
i’m struck and stranded
vanished neath the beauty
northsea train’s on time
northsea train
