When you need someone

and there's no one there

there is always the 9 o'clock train

to take you out somewhere



I take the train in town

like I did for years

there is only 7 more blocks

I could walk from here



I wanna stay home

I wanna stay home right here

I wanna stay home today

I wanna stay



It's only six o'clock

when my day begins

there is always my alarm clock

to wake me up again

when I realize the weight

that's firmly on my shoulders

I just try and find the place

I can take a walk on my blind side



when these memories fade

in my ripe old age

please remember my dear

I wanna stay home
