Railroad Jerk - Halfway Across
20
Copied!
We are halfway across the Atlantic
The captain's given orders "do not panic"
The chandeliers are shaking
Looks like the storm is breaking
The captain's reassuring smiling while a drop of wine falls on his knees
We are halfway across the Atlantic
The band has gone and taken all its music
The maid of honor's waiting
This is her maiden voyage
Her sister caught the bouquet with her teeth she was the one who requested a honeymoon suite
For ten days now the engines have been smoking
I asked the porter if something had been broken
The banquet room is under
There's lighting and there's thunder
You can hear the ocean hiss and foam no one is home just empty champagne glasses
I held on fast until the sun had risen
A ship was coming on the horizon
The smoke poured forth full blast
I knew I was saved at last
I thought back to sometime in 1985 when all the world was round
...and we were halfway across the Atlantic
