(waiting for) The Ghost Train — текст песни (Madness)

A straw headed woman, and a barrel chested man,
A pocket full of posies with a hat brim full of sand,
Ooh - waiting for the train that never comes,

A dog chasing the tumbleweeds, across the sandy floor,
That drift along the platform, through the ticket office door,
Ooh - waiting for the train that never comes,
Ooh - waiting for the train that never comes,

But don`t tell me there`s nothing coming, you don`t fool me,
I hear the ghost train rumbling along the tracks - set them free,
And I hear them,
It`s black and white don`t try to hide,
It`s black and white don`t try to hide,

The station master`s writing with a piece of orange chalk,
A hundred cancellations, still no one wants to walk,
Keep the hungry children from the skeletons in the back,
Paid to keep an eye out for the gipsy caravan,
Ooh - waiting for the train that never comes,
Ooh - waiting for the train that never comes,

I hear the ghost train rumbling along the tracks - set them free,
And I hear them,
It`s black and white don`t try to hide,
It`s black and white don`t try to hide,
It`s black and white don`t try to hide,
It`s black and white don`t try to hide,
It`s black and white (don`t try),
It`s black and white (don`t try),
It`s black and white don`t try to hide,
It`s black and white don`t try to hide,
And I hear them,
It`s black and white don`t try to hide,
It`s black and white don`t try to hide...
