Gun Shy - 10000 Maniacs Lyrics

I always knew that you would take yourself far from home

as soon as, as far as you could go.

By the 1/4 inch cut of your hair and the Army issue green,

for the past eight weeks I can tell where you've been.

For I knew, I could see, it was all cut and dried to me

there was soldier's blue blood streaming inside your veins.

There is a world outside of this room and when you meet it promise me

you won't meet it with your gun.

10000 Maniacs Lyrics - Can't Ignore The Train

Steep is the water tower 

Painted off-blue to match the sky 

Can't ignore the train 

Night walks in the valley silent 

You could swear the earth just moved 

Can't ignore the train 

Dust to be kicked up 

In the crack-faced idle sinister town 

Screen door to the rail station 

Devil in her, she ran alongside the wasted tracks 

Hem pins darted in her calves 

Can't ignore the train 

One spoiled girl with the tidiest apology 

Somehow wedged inside her throat

Can't ignore the train 

Patience their virtue 

But I never could abide by that 

Dungeon life with electric light 

A clean towel and a basin 

Mantel figures mind their places

And laughs where they belong 

Through adventure

We are not adventuresome 

Rage to share with a wardrobe mirror 

In a room so beige and cold 

Can't ignore the train 

Window days saw the children pick their street games on thirty, thirty

Thirty afternoons 

Molly, the boys are 

Starting in that rhyme again 

Teasing more and more the second daughter 

How she fell 

Young locked in some folks' prison 

Made to dwell 

Till they're braiding her gray hair 

Sitting in the wishing chair 

Sitting in the wishing chair 

Sitting in the wishing chair
