SCENIC RAILWAY

Translation by Lulu Norman, PG Imhof & Mick Harvey


Hey, I'll take you away
On the scenic railway
If that's what you want
It's a breeze

Hey, I'll take you away
On the scenic railway
Tomorrow we'll see
I agree

But don't you ever feel
Somewhat unaware dear
Of all that love means
Will you find out one day?

Hey, I'll take you away
On the scenic railway
That's all you think about
It's a tease

Hey, I'll take you away
On the scenic railway
But those kind of thrills
Are easy

Hey, I'll take you away
On the scenic railway
Don't be such a sook
It's Ok

That way you can be
As cruel as I want you
Clutching on to my arm
Your nails digging deep

Hey, I know you're au fait
With my cynical ways
But it's not just machines
That ride you up in the sky
