[00:00:00] Over The Points - Ian Dury

[00:00:03] Thank you

[00:00:11] I am an actual train believe it or not believe it or not

[00:00:18] I carry you backwards and forth

[00:00:20] South and north on down the line and up

[00:00:26] Before they shunt me into the final siding

[00:00:28] I wish to make a few points

[00:00:34] Whenever I have a breakdown

[00:00:36] All my passengers start talking to each other

[00:00:41] They can sit walk sleep or have a tidy as

[00:00:45] I hurtle along

[00:00:53] Sometimes we track this line

[00:00:54] With decapitated schoolboy's heads still wearing their caps

[00:01:02] Upon me at any given moment ten or twelve

[00:01:04] People might be taking craps over the points

[00:01:11] I've transported enormous frivolity and fearful

[00:01:14] Violence in my carriages

[00:01:19] I've got compartments for sex birth

[00:01:23] Death and occasional train spotters marriages

[00:01:34] Believe you me

[00:01:35] There are some right eccentrics

[00:01:36] Walking up and down my corridors

[00:01:45] Picture the consternation in my bogies

[00:01:47] When my drivers had a drink

[00:01:53] All over the shop hundreds of

[00:01:54] People invariably male write our numbers down

[00:02:00] We as trains are agreed that this is

[00:02:03] Because we are extremely phallic

[00:02:10] Nobody seems frightened on board us

[00:02:12] Because we hardly ever crash

[00:02:14] We've been squashing pennies for well over a century

[00:02:17] People love it when they're robbed and

[00:02:18] They wave at us and are happy watching us going passed

[00:02:21] Can you imagine

[00:02:22] How pleasant it is in general being an iron horse

[00:02:25] I'm quite chuffed
