Lyrics Saint Etienne – Train Drivers In Eyeliner

Can we ask the deputy general if he could take the mic?
And tell us what he has in mind for routes in district nine
I’d like to hear the Tannoys playing Section 25

We need train drivers in eyeliner

Could we ask the political officer if he could share his view?
And spell out what he has in mind for lines in district two
I’ll dress the guards like sweet Gene Vincent singing «Baby Blue»

We need train drivers in eyeliner
We need train drivers all over this land
That’s our plan

We invite the union president to kindly take the floor
And tell us what he has in mind for trains in district four
The buffet will be blasting Whitesnake, «Fool For Your Loving No More»

We need train drivers in eyeliner
We need train drivers all over this land
That’s our plan

Train drivers
Train drivers
That’s our plan
