Take the train, go separate ways
And leave it long forgotten
I'll hang my hat and I won't be back
On my way out

I'm feelin' lame, am I to blame
Or am I just too jaded
I won't be back, what you think of that?

When it feel like life's wastin' away
I can say

That when there's something on my mind
That takes my concentration
Just wanna lay it on the line
Avoid all confrontation
I'm gonna say this one more time
For all my generation
You'll never, ever pull my lever
Not today and not forever

Take the fame and change my name
Because my jacket's fading
I'll change my hat (no we can't have that)
(now you're lookin' at a brand new cat)
It's all made up, I've had enough of this circulation
If you write me back I'll tell you where it's at

When it feel like life's wastin' away
I can say

That when there's something on my mind
That takes my concentration
Just wanna lay it on the line
Avoid all confrontation
I'm gonna say this one more time
For all my generation
You'll never, ever pull my lever
Not today and not forever
