about

A song about taking control of the train.

lyrics

Derailed

You got on this train again, my friend
Now you’ve got to stay till the end
I went under that kitchen table recommended by you
Then you pushed me off like an uncomfortable shoe
You made a floor creak and suddenly I’m bearing your shame
I knew from beginning that I didn’t like this game

But you got on this train again, my friend
Now you’ve got to stay till the very end
I fell hard for that serenade you used to do
A clever charade, Rimbaud and Verlaine (Who shot who?)
You heard a door creak and suddenly, I’m Captain Hook
Well, I knew all along you were playing that rook

CHORUS:
I guess you got a little derailed, yes
Off that straight train track trail, yes
I think you got a little derailed, yes
Found you like the taste of puppy dog tail

You stretched out on your brother’s bed
and smiled like a cat
Little army men running down your back
Now if we examine this,
are there any details you care to list?
I can feel your eyes glaring at me like fists
Should I say any more about this?

REPEAT CHORUS

That beanbag got between us
Our hands played hide-n-seek
I found your Mount of Venus
Your heart line’s looking weak
Ask 50 Magdelenes
And try to be discreet

Is this a secret I should keep?
Complete discretion…
All the tension…
I’ll testify to my own resurrection

REPEAT CHORUS till end
