Lyrics Hammers of Misfortune

Hammers of Misfortune

Train

Where were you? We faded out the other day

Make up new wounds to count and contemplate

Hear that lonesome whistle blowin'

Just for you and you alone

Lightning speed to nowhere it's your lucky day

Can't believe the nerve of that proceeding verse

Worse than where you are is that you got there first

Sure you can reverse

Turn a blessing to a curse

Lightning train to nowhere in the universe

Stressing every syllable of your complaint

Can't they tell the difference

Between passengers and freight?

Cursing the conductor then

We try our luck again

Lightning speed to nowhere but oblivion

Pictures play in place all day

They never leave their wall

They stand against it

And when they talk

They do so it can hear

For they know

That their wall has ears

All ears, all ears

Swatting at the smoke rings in the dining car

Speculation station is that where we are?

Plenty Of Conjecture

Would you like to give a lecture?

Lightning train to anywhere but very far

Lightning Speed to nowhere but obscurity

Only destination is the scenery

Hear that lonesome whistle blowin'

Just for you and you alone

Lightning train illusion of Velocity
