Jethro Tull - Locomotive Breath lyrics

In the shuffling madess<br>Of the locomotive breath,<br>Runs the all-time loser,<br>Headlong to his death.<br>He feels the piston scraping --<br>Steam breaking on his brow --<br>Old charlie stole the handle and<br>The train won't stop going --<br>No way to slow down.<br>He sees his children jumping off<br>At the stations -- one by one.<br>His woman and his best friend --<br>In bed and having fun.<br>He's crawling down the corridor<br>On his hands and knees --<br>Old charlie stole the handle and<br>The train won't stop going --<br>No way to slow down.<br>He hears the silence howling --<br>Catches angels as they fall.<br>And the all-time winner<br>Has got him by the balls.<br>He picks up gideons Bible --<br>Open at page one --<br>Old charlie stole the handle and<br>The train won't stop going --<br>No way to slow down.
