[Verse 1]
The snipers are passed out
In the bushes again
I'm glad I got my suit dry-cleaned
Before the riots started
'Cause there's only rehashed faces
On the bread line tonight
Soon you'll be a figment
Of some infamous life
[Pre-Chorus]
Billionaires smile like weapons
Passing out platinum pensions
They're out of control
No one knows how low they'll go
[Chorus]
(Hold on)
Take a ride on a broken train
(Hold on)
Take a ride on a broken train
[Verse 2]
Those bra burning deportees
At the service station
They know that beige
Is the color of resignation
[Pre Chorus]
We're out of control
No one knows how low we'll go
[Chorus]
(Hold on)
Take a ride on a broken train
(Hold on)
Take a ride on a broken train
[Bridge]
Shining like crystal tiaras
Ghettos and gray Rivieras
This is the real me ladies
You won't find no shelter here
[Verse 3]
Tell me, what's your zip code, baby?
Did you ever let a cowboy sit on your lap?
[Pre Chorus]
They're out of control
No one knows how low we'll go
[Chorus]
(Hold on)
Take a ride on a broken train
(Hold on)
Take a ride on a broken train
[Outro]
We're out of control
We're out of control
We're out of control
We're out of control
(Hold on)
We're out of control
Take a ride on a broken train
Take a ride on a broken train
Take a ride on the fucking train
