One of Us

Those Poor Bastards

Empty pockets, aching guts
Are you one of us?
From the bottom reaching up
Are you one of us?
The engineer has lost control
Oh, God no
The engineer has lost control
Oh, God no
Death train rolling down the tracks
Doomed, derailed never coming back
 
Weary brain and busted jaw
Are you one of us?
Caring for nothing it all
Are you one of us?
The engineer has lost control
Oh, God no
The engineer has lost control
Oh, God no
Death train rolling down the tracks
Doomed, derailed never coming back
 
Crawling down a gravel road

Are you one of us?
Sunken cheeks and shattered bones
Are you one of us?
The engineer has lost control
The engineer has lost control
Death train rolling down the tracks
Doomed, derailed never coming back
 
Filthy clothes hang like a shroud
Are you one of us?
Mama, Papa ain't you proud?
Are you one of us?
The engineer has lost control
Oh, God no
The engineer has lost control
Oh, God no
Death train rolling down the tracks
Doomed, derailed never coming back
