I am a walking tower of silence
Haven't I got some place to be
Pushing your friends aside you just move on
Can't tell if you're dancing just for me
We stop so far from any station
And it's so still and dark outside
Where have you been while I was sleeping
On the strangest ride
Couldn't you grow a pair of wings now
Pushing yourself above the roof
Couldn't you be my new relation
You and your fur and leather boots
We stop so far from any station
And it's so still and dark outside
Where have you been while I was sleeping
On the strangest ride
I've been trying to lift your heavy feeling
Tic-ticking along like an old machine
Come up the front and drive with the driver
Shovel the coal and make the steam
We stop so far from any station
And it's so still and dark outside
Where have you been while I was sleeping
On the strangest ride
Been on the strangest ride
Been on the strangest ride
Been on the strangest ride
Haven't I got some place to be
Pushing your friends aside you just move on
Can't tell if you're dancing just for me
We stop so far from any station
And it's so still and dark outside
Where have you been while I was sleeping
On the strangest ride
Couldn't you grow a pair of wings now
Pushing yourself above the roof
Couldn't you be my new relation
You and your fur and leather boots
We stop so far from any station
And it's so still and dark outside
Where have you been while I was sleeping
On the strangest ride
I've been trying to lift your heavy feeling
Tic-ticking along like an old machine
Come up the front and drive with the driver
Shovel the coal and make the steam
We stop so far from any station
And it's so still and dark outside
Where have you been while I was sleeping
On the strangest ride
Been on the strangest ride
Been on the strangest ride
Been on the strangest ride
