Dr. Diamond (Live) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I am the driver of an underground train
Chaos in the streets above, to me it's all the same
I shake your houses, then I'm gone, keeping time down here below
I could drive my train to hell, and not a soul would know

[Verse 2]
I am the driver of an underground train
Just imagine who I am and breathe the letters of my name
[Before he said a single word, I called the foreman on the line
When he looked me in the face, and he made the fatal sign ?]

[Verse 3]
I am the driver of an underground train
The lonely life can't bother me, far away from wind and rain
I come upon the station lights with a mighty rushing sound
Then hiss of lorry, for the private life, I drive around

[Verse 4]
I am the driver of an underground train
Climb aboard, just climb aboard, your loss is my eternal gain
Squeeze your precious body in before I quickly close the doors
Riding in the smoky dark, your life is mine, my life is yours
