Ooh, I've been diggin' round in my own dirt again

And I don't smell the roses

And the train is speeding, boiler stoked

And I won't be home for a while

And I won't be home for a while

And I won't be home for a while



Grin - I won't be home for a while

Grin, grin, grin - I won't be home for a while



Ooh, if I were to love another of my kind

Would you mind?

If I did now, would you mind

Now these words are burning holes in my face

These are dangerous days for the calm mind

And the train is speeding, boiler stokes

And I won't be home for a while

And I won't be home for a while

And I won't be home for a while



Grin, grin, grin - I won't be home for a while

Grin, grin, grin - I won't be home for a while



From ear to ear

Toes to chin

North to South

And back again



From ear to ear

Toes to chin

North to South

And back again



Running from the savagely unkind



Grin, grin, grin - I won't be home for a while

Grin, grin, grin - I won't be home for a while
