People at the station / Checkin’ the time / Been waitin’ so long To hear that whistle whine / There’s a shine on the rails And a clickety-clack / But there ain’t no train / Comin’ down the track Ain’t no train (ain’t no train) Ain’t no train (ain’t no train) Ain’t no train (ain’t no train) To carry me home It reeks of darkness / And smoke in the air / Nobody here’s Goin’ anywhere / I’d give anything / To get it all back But there ain’t no train / Comin’ down the track Chorus Back in the day / When the sun would shine / I used to have a lover At the end of the line / But the weather changed And I turned my back / Now there ain’t no train Comin’ down the track You can sail a sailboat / You can drive a motorcycle Rent a car catch a star / Ride a bullet from a rifle Peddie cab, bus ride, helicopter, Circle Line But you can’t escape the pain / If you haven’t got a train Chorus 2x

Hey Guys, Watch This
by Nellie McKay

This album is like an iceberg, with a surface of nice chill jazz to relax to. But underneath there are teeth. Initiation continues to heal me and blow my mind over and over as it lulls the nervous system with its gentle and addictive melody while talking about the experience of domestic abuse. It also has some of the tightest, jazziest lyric-writing I've ever heard. ActuallyAlison
