What a Pleasant Journey

[Joel]
Hey Cambot, can you do that music again?
Yeah, good
Hello, ladies and gentleman, mah name is Joel Robinson, and nothin' sets my heart a'wanderin' like the sound of a train whistle. Tom?

[Tom]
The call to the open road, the urge to chuck all and hop on a freight train is one of the most romantic notions of this century. Crow?

[Crow]
That's why we've decided to write our own train songs. We hope it brings out the same traveling vagabond, everywhere-I-hang-my-hat-is-home spirit in you. Joel, if you will?

[Joel]
Thank you, Crow T. Guthrie

I hear that train comin'
Comin' round the hill
I hope that is my train
I better check my schedule
Oops, that was the train to Appleton
But it's going to Circle Pines
And I've about got twenty minutes to kill
It's a good thing I brought some magazines
Tom?

[Tom]
Been ridin' on this old train
Been ridin' it all night
I think I'll go to the club car
And get myself a bite
Mm, this tuna melt sammich really tastes quite nice

Oh, got sesame seeds in the bun!

'Cause it comes with cole slaw and a pickle
And I must say it's reasonably priced
Crow?

[Crow]
The 5:15 from Duluth
Oh my! It just derailed!
The toxic waste is spillin'
The conductor's been impaled
A benzine cloud has risen
And the whole town's startin' to cough
Within in a matter of daaaaaaays
All of our skin will fall off

[Tom]
I'm gonna pick one now...

[Joel]
Okay. Uh, well, ya know....uh...Cambot! Could you... You know, guys, I--uh--I get the feeling we're not really cut out to do train songs, after all. I really think that being who we are in space, and all, we're a lot better suited at singing about being...

[All]
In cars!
