Can’t Ignore The Train

John Lombardo, Natalie Merchant

[Verse 1]
Steep is the water tower
Painted off-blue to match the sky

[Refrain]
Can't ignore the train

[Verse 2]
Night walks in the valley silent
You could swear the earth just moved

[Refrain]
Can't ignore the train

[Bridge 1]
Dust to be kicked up
In the crack-faced, idle, sinister town

Screen door to the rail station
Devil in her
She ran along side the wasted tracks
Hem pins darted her calves

[Refrain]
Can't ignore the train

[Verse 4]
One spoiled girl with the tidiest apology
Somehow wedged inside her throat

[Refrain]
Can't ignore the train

[Bridge 2]
Patience their virtue
But i never could abide
By that dungeon life with electric light
A clean towel and a basin
Mantle figures mind their places
And laughs where they belong

Through adventure we are not adventure-

[Verse 5]
Some rage to share with a wardrobe mirror
In a room so beige and cold

[Refrain]
Can't ignore the train

[Verse 6]
Window days saw the children pick
Their street games on thirty, thirty afternoons

[Bridge 3]
Molly the boys are
Starting in the rhyme again
Teasing more and more
The second daughter, how she fell
Young, locked in some folk's prison
Made to dwell
Till they're braiding her grey hair

[Outro]
Sitting in the wishing chair
Sitting in the wishing chair
Sitting in the wishing chair
