The End Of The Line - Dan Bull/The Stupendium

Lyrics by：Dan Bull/Gregory Holgate

Composed by：Dan Bull/Gregory Holgate

Sleeping deep beneath the sleepers of the isle

There's a demon creature dreaming heathen and reviled

Sees no rhyme or reason but for feasting when he's riled

Better let him be lest you are sure to see the smile

Of sixteen tons of scurrying death

Smoldering souls through funnel of red

With a pick-like grin on the front of his head

Sat atop a most illogical number of legs

Tickets please Let me tell you the tale

Of a wicked beast that'll follow your trail

Through the valleys and vales on your tail day and night

There'll be chaos on the rails when the railway strikes

Stop take stock try to gauge the situation

'Fraid your train has been derailed

There's no use waiting in the station

Every engine's been dismantled

There's no other service coming

Charles is leading by example

He's the only train that's running

All in all we're in a doozy of a mess

So all aboard the WTF express

Should you want to stay safe

Then I wouldn't play games

Or you'll learn another way of saying

Run away Train

Every life has a light in the tunnel ahead

But you might just find that behind it instead

Of a heaven is an engine and the devil inbred

And we're next on the menu if we've left him unfed

Charlie

Your timetable says it's almost time for tea

Charlie

And we've laid on quite a spread as you can see

There's a choo-choo train

Coming after you

Food chain's

Gone a bit askew

Won't catch that train

If it's gonna catch you

For certain worse than what they say to mind the gap for

The train's not just cancelled it's d**n well deplatformed

Since it scampered off the tracks to find

A snack from off your back lawn

Couple jackdaws and your cat

And then your dad from off the back porch

He's hungry and he's hunting down the islanders

With a side of any siding-hiding bystanders

Quite queer what his dietary requirements are

But it's pretty clear regardless he's a dining car

Coke Coal Petroleum Alone they'll never do

No this engine sends the scent of rendered flesh

Out from the flue

On this service we'll be serving something rather more unnerving

Chugga-chugging on blood as he chew-chews you

It's all true choo-choos consume fuel too

Humans are a whole new consumable and whole food

Gluten free range and more renewable than coal too
