Verse
G#m F#
Yesterday's coal train came to rest in the bitter
E
Cutting
B F# E F# D#
And as the signals took an age to change it was
D#7
Easy pickings
E
So you go to the movies where they smash it up
F#
You want to feel your heart pumping it makes
You feel good
B F#
All through the karaoke girls were squealing
The hits
B F# D# D#7
As another Mercedes-Benz gets blown to bits
G#m F#
While all the time in the camp town theaters
E
Of Piccadilly
B F# E
They're going to throw a black-face minstrel
F# D#
Show for the barefoot children
D#7
That they're always selling
E
They'll say "It's quaint" as the guilty ones faint
F#
And claim they ain't underneath this paint
B F#
We interrupt these liberal saints with their
E D#
Whips and watermelon
[Chorus]
G#m E C#m F#
Reports are coming in of a coal-train robbery
G#m E C#m F#
It's like another world, or it had better be
G#m F#
So we return to whitewashed pout of his
E
Committed lips
B F# E
Since he was declared the long lost fountain
F# D# D#7
Of youth that drips and drips and drips
E
They'll be sending him round from door to door
F#
To sell you back what's already yours
B F#
"So many good deeds, so little time"
B F# D# D#7
Say the advertising agency swine
E
When man has destroyed what he thinks he owns
F#
I hope no living thing cries over his bones
B F#
If you don't believe that I'm going for good
B F#
You can count the days I'm gone and chop up
D# D#7
The chairs for firewood
[Chorus]
G#m E C#m F#
Reports are coming in of a coal-train robbery
G#m E C#m F#
It's like another world, or it had better be
