Jethro Tull ☆ 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.
