Train of Thought


Moved house last week, I'm back on the train


Now live in the country, down a winding lane


More space for the kids, nearer their new school


It's near a national park, with a swimming pool


Moved house last week, I'm back on the train


(driving to work now too much of a pain)


It's an early start each day, but I'm up-beat


Though I never seem to get a seat



Moved house last month, I'm stuck on the train


3 hour commute? Is this the act of the sane?


The new house is much bigger, but so is the debt


Working 90 hour weeks to see the mortgage is met


Moved house last month, I'm stuck on the train


My quality of life has gone down the drain


Never see the views of the national park


(I leave before six and get back after dark)



Moved house last spring, I hate this train


My will to live is beginning to wane


Never at home, tired when I am


Don't see the kids, my marriage a sham


Moved house last spring, I hate this train


Lost a whole lot more than I had to gain


Kids now staying with their Nan


Wife's run off with the pool cleaning man



Moved house last week, I'm renting in the city


Walk to work, cloaked in self-pity


We're did it go wrong? It's a sorry tale


And the house in the country is up for sale!
