Lyrics
[Intro] Ah, that's the one, that's the one. Now, you can dim it just a taste, you know, if you care to dim it, just as long as we can see. (Dim it way down, dim it way the fuck down, way down.) (I don't think it goes down any farther than that.) (He's just sitting there.) I can't see a thing. Now, let's take a show of hands, how many people want that light on? A show of hands, show of hands. (We can't see any hands, the lights aren't on.) Ha, I was about to get to that. (You can't see, ah, wait a minute, let's see, let's see, let's see, let's see.) This better be good. (One, two, three, four) [Chorus] Driving that train, high on cocaine Casey Jones you better, watch your speed Trouble ahead, trouble behind And you know that notion just crossed my mind [Verse 1] This old engine Makes it on time Leaves Central Station At a quarter to nine Hits river junction At seventeen to At a quarter to ten You know it's traveling again [Chorus] Driving that train, high on cocaine Casey Jones you better, watch your speed Trouble ahead, trouble behind And you know that notion just crossed my mind [Verse 2] Trouble ahead A lady in red Take my advice You'd be better off dead Switch-man sleeping Train hundred-and-two Is on the wrong track And headed for you [Chorus] Driving that train, high on cocaine Casey Jones you better, watch your speed Trouble ahead, trouble behind And you know that notion just crossed my mind [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] Trouble with you is The trouble with me Got two good eyes But they still don't see Come 'round the bend You know it's the end The fireman screams And the engine just gleams [Chorus] Driving that train, high on cocaine Casey Jones you better, watch your speed Trouble ahead, trouble behind And you know that notion just crossed my mind Driving that train, high on cocaine Casey Jones you better, watch your speed Trouble ahead, trouble behind And you know that notion just crossed my mind Driving that train, high on cocaine Casey Jones you better, watch your speed Trouble ahead, trouble behind And you know that notion just crossed my mind Driving that train, high on cocaine Casey Jones you better, watch your speed Trouble ahead, trouble behind And you know that notion just crossed my mind [Outro] And you know that notion just crossed my mind Hey, is that the picture we were gonna see in a few seconds? (Yeah, that ain't a Rembrandt, that's a Dahli, isn't it?) Yeah, that's a Dahli. (I was led to believe it was a Rembrandt, however, that'll do.) What's the name of that one? What's the name of that one? (Man with his head exploding, ha ha) That's an excellent picture if you see it in really full stunning color, a good reproduction of the real thing. You guys ready? We're gonna unload a new one on you, another new one, yet another. Ready?
