Locomotive Breath - Jethro Tull
In the shuffling madness of the locomotive breath, runs the all - time loser, headlong to his death. He feels the piston scraping - steam breaking on his brow - Old Charlie stole the handle and the train it won't stop going- no way to slow down. He sees his children jumping off at the stations - one by one. His woman and his best friend - in bed and having fun. He's crawling down the corridor on his hands and knees- old Charlie stole the handle and the train it won't stop going - no way to slow down. He hears the silence howling - catches angels as they fall. And the all-time winner has got him by the balls. He picks up Gideons Bible - open at page one - God He stole the handle and the train won't stop going - no way to slow down.
