Nowhere Fast
I'd like to drop my trousers to the world
I am a man of means (of slender means)
And every new appliance
Is like a new science
In my town
And if the day came when I felt a natural emotion
I'd get such a shock I'd probably jump in the ocean
And when the train goes by
It's such a sad sound
It's such a sad thing
I'd like to drop my trousers to the Queen
Every sensible child will know what this means
The poor and the needy
Are selfish and greedy
On her terms
And if the day came when I felt a natural emotion
I'd get such a shock I'd probably jump in the ocean
And when the train goes by
It's such a sad sound
It's such a sad thing
And when I'm lying in my bed
I think about life and I think about death
And neither one
Particularly appeals to me
And if the day came when I felt a natural emotion
I'd get such a shock I'd probably lie
In the middle of the street and die
I'd lie down and die
