Train - Rat lyrics

Not too smart, just out of school
A teachers pet and modern fool
Talked about being a freelance broker
But the police caught him trying to choke her
Can't describe him in his corner, no, no
Like a rat out of the water
Out of work and out of grass
Mother Mary never seems to stop to talk
She just walked on past
Down down, no information, one day always
Away

And why, why, can't I see you
One day always away
And why, why, can't I be you
One day always away

He's out of school now
Just another taken barstool
And this neighborhood ain't what he
Had in mind, no, no
Wants to be your girlfriend and
Wants to be your boyfriend
Wants to be your telephone, wants to
Wants to be your own man

And why, why, can't I see you
One day always away why why, can't I be you
One day always away always away
Down down, no information
