Song
I saw the railway master and I looked him in the eye
I said, "Would you go much faster if you thought that you would die?"
He said, "Not me, sir, I could not care, in fact I would not try
Protest would not take me far
It's different, me not being a star"
I lock my feelings in a jar until another day
Oh, comfort me, dear brother, won't you tell me what you know?
Somewhere in this paper world is a place where I can go
Oh, long awaiting mother, is it time to make a show?
And take your babies to your breast
No, we never passed the test
All our sins should be confessed before we carry on
Oh, don't refuse me
If you choose me, you follow my shame
No, don't confuse me
For I know it's the name of the game
Got up off my pillow and I looked up at the sun
Said, "You can see quite clearly now the things that we have done
We burned your sacred willow and our battles we have won
But did we get so very far?
It's different, me not being a star"
I lock my feelings in a jar until we go away
Oh, don't refuse me
If you choose me, you follow my shame
No, don't confuse me
For I know it's the name of the game
Oh, don't refuse me
If you choose me, you follow my shame
No, don't confuse me
For I know it's the name of the game
