I'm goin' down that stairway They look so lovely and pale When they kiss the third rail And they won't step lively anymore
A terror grows (know it, know it) It shows (know it, know it) You watch me walk from car to car What the hell am I looking for
And if this train gets stuck 'Cause man you're outta luck
I take the one that's jammed up tight They think they're oh so prim and white They look so lovely and pale When they kiss the third rail And they won't step lively anymore
A feeling grows (you've had it, had it) I know (you've had it, had it) By God this blade is razor sharp Do you know how to play a harp
You won't be home tonight, ooh
I'm goin' down that stairway Gotta put my glove on yeah They look so lovely and pale When they kiss the third rail And they won't step lively anymore
