Twenty Five To Midnight

In the style of

Sting

Lyrics

the train i ride don't be slow

if your whistle can blow

fifteen miles down the track

tell them i'm comin' back

counting poles counting sheep

don't be slow i won't weep

if your wheels on the line

were to put me on time

just a year to the day

since i went upon my way

seek my fortune and fame

be a star change my name

and that's it more or less

'til this midnight express

i know i can't be late

'cos she said she won't wait

she'll just go and marry jack

so there's no turning back

and it's twenty

five to midnight

and fifteen

miles of track

band i had got a break

just one chance we had to take

i told my girl i'd be back

left her with my friend jack

new york city for a spell

things didn't turn out so well

every dive that we played

we were lucky we got paid

mister train driver please

if your speed you increase

every cent i have now

will be yours this i vow

and that's it more or less

'til this midnight express

i know i can't be late

'cos she said she won't wait

she'll just go and marry jack

so there's no turning back

and it's twenty

five to midnight

and fifteen

miles of track

we called ourselves

the latino lovers

hawaiian shirts and

top forty covers

i didn't think i

could sink this low

and drugs and booze

ate all my dough

this isn't how i

was meant to be

there's no such thing as

a meal that's free

if i was ever to get out alive

i have to get some more time

train i ride don't be slow

if your whistle can blow

fifteen miles down the track

tell them i'm comin' back

and that's it more or less

'til this midnight express

i know i can't be late

'cos she said she won't wait

she'll just go and marry jack

so there's no turning back

and it's twenty

five to midnight

and fifteen

miles of track

twenty five to midnight

and fifteen miles of track
