I was standing on the platform, waiting for a train The conductor gave a signal, but I'd left it far too late Yeah, I meant to buy a ticket, meant to make a call Guess I'll smoke another cigarette and lean against the wall And watch the world go by The man with the brief case has come in out of the rain He had trouble with the razor in a rush to meet the train There's a girl from Lincoln Park, a girl all dressed in red Who had words with the baker for running out of bread Watch the world go by Watch the world go by Tomorrow is another day Today's not over yet Na na na Na na na na na Na na na na na na Na na na Na na na na na Na na na na na na Na na na na Somebody left a paper; I can catch up on the news See if someone's into something, something I could use, yeah But, I don't really care, I'm leaving here come fall Guess I'll smoke another cigarette, lean against the wall And watch the world go by Watch the world go by Watch the world go by
