second thought

please note that smoking is not permitted on any part of this train

The 11.30's been cancelled again
The 11.45's moved to platform ten
We apologise for the delay to this service
We apologise if the station smells of piss

Please buy your ticket, tho' it won't be checked
Please note the timetable is never correct
Over-priced drinks are at the rear of the train
We're afraid to announce the toilets aren't working
Again

I've spent half my life rotting away
On Birmingham New Street, day after day
The amount of money I have to pay
To waste on this "service", it's not okay

The train is too full, you'll just have to stand
First class is empty, standard is crammed
Your reserved seat has not been reserved
If you're stupid enough to use us, this is what
You deserve

I've spent half my life rotting away
On Birmingham New Street, day after day
The amount of money I have to pay
To waste on this "service", it's not okay
