[Verse 1]
The last train is nearly due
The underground is closing soon
And in the dark deserted station
Restless in anticipation
A man waits in the shadows
[Verse 2]
His restless eyes leap and scratch
At all that they can touch or catch
And hidden deep within his pocket
Safe within it's silent socket
He holds a colored crayon
[Verse 3]
Now from the tunnel's stony womb
The carriage rides to meet the groom
And opens wide and welcome doors
But he hesitates, then withdraws
Deeper in the shadows
[Bridge]
And the train is gone suddenly
On wheels clicking silently
Like a gently tapping litany
And he holds his crayon rosary
Tighter in his hand
The last train is nearly due
The underground is closing soon
And in the dark deserted station
Restless in anticipation
A man waits in the shadows
[Verse 2]
His restless eyes leap and scratch
At all that they can touch or catch
And hidden deep within his pocket
Safe within it's silent socket
He holds a colored crayon
[Verse 3]
Now from the tunnel's stony womb
The carriage rides to meet the groom
And opens wide and welcome doors
But he hesitates, then withdraws
Deeper in the shadows
[Bridge]
And the train is gone suddenly
On wheels clicking silently
Like a gently tapping litany
And he holds his crayon rosary
Tighter in his hand
