Clockwork Train

There's a buzz going round
But it missed me out
Like a distant sound of a siren
Which was too far away

I regret to inform
I cannot be there for the latest storm in a teacup
There's a change from today

So get another driver for your clockwork train
Cause I'm taking time, out of mind
Get another driver for your clockwork train
I resign from your line

If I miss the alarm, I will just sleep in
Cause it takes makes no change in the long run
When the bandwagon's gone
If you scream out the date, It will make no odds
I will still be late for my funeral
Please don't wait for too long

Get another driver for your clockwork train
I have done my time circle line
Get another driver for your clockwork train
From now on I am gone

Signal turn to red please do not drag from my bed
You heard what Mr Beeching said
You're closing down
Nothing on the rails but the sleepers now
I can not hear a sound I will not be around

Get another driver for your clockwork train
I have done my time circle line
Get another driver for your clockwork train
From now on I have gone.
