Rusty, a young and slightly naive steam shunter bumps into Greaseball and his gang. They taunt him—and though it is omitted from the cast recording—Control tells Rusty to fetch the coaches. Rusty follows Control’s orders, but he is angry and imagines that he will win the races. The coaches—Ashley th...
Rusty:
Woo woo
Woo woo
Nobody can do it like a steam train
Gang:
It's Rusty - split, hide
Greaseball:
Out of the way
Anyone can do it to a steam train
Rusty:
Woo woo
Woo woo
Nobody can do it like a steam train
Gang:
You going in for the race, steam train? Should do
Nobody can do it like a steam train
Greaseball:
Who can do it like a steam train?
Gang:
He said nobody, so he's nobody
Hi, nobody
Nobody
Steam train
That'll teach you to show some respect for diesel
'Cause diesel's gonna win it
Okay, Rusty?
Greaseball:
Okay, steam train?
Gang:
Okay, Rusty?
Rusty:
Call me Rusty if you like
Rusty's how I look
And Rusty's my name
Slow corrosion is eroding my frame
Call me Rusty if you like
Call me Rusty if you must
It isn't nice but I admit that it fits
For a dead-end engine falling to bits
Call me Rusty if you like
Coaches:
Come on Rusty
Come on Rusty
Come on Rusty
Rusty:
This is not the dream I dreamed when they first lit my fire
Mainline coaches streamed behind as my steam rose higher
Switching and hitching at everyone's call
Never occurred in my vision at all
But when they start the racing and you notice the steam
You know it's me that's moving on
And proving you should listen to your dream
Call me Rusty if you dare
'Cause when you see me on the finishing line
And when I take the place that's rightfully mine
Call me Rusty if you dare
Coaches:
Listen to this big shot talking he seems to imply
All the trains will just move over and let him by
Pearl:
Rusty you can not believe all that stuff
Coaches:
You mustn't go racing you're not tough enough
You'll either be a hundred miles away at the back
Or worse they'll find you scattered in a million rusty pieces 'round the track
Rusty:
Call me Rusty if you dare
'Cause when you see me on the finishing line
And when I take the place that's rightfully mine
Call me Rusty
Coaches:
Hello Rusty, good boy Rusty, hello Rusty, good boy Rusty
Rusty:
Call me Rusty I don't care
