TRAIN SPOTTERS


Tim, he goes out every day
To Darlington railway
To watch the trains go by
And you may wonder why
It's just a waste of time
Does Timmy know the score?
Does Timmy know much more?

You've considered them the wrong way now
You've considered him the wrong way
You've considered them the wrong way now
You've considered him the wrong way

This is a club of
Just wanna be rogues
With anoraks, cords
And their inspector brogues
And Timmy gets up at
The dawn every morning
Packs his lunch book and camera
While he is stil yawning, and

He's off to fulfill
His life's great fascination
He's off to trainspot
At the great railway station

Tim, he goes to platform 3
To see if he can see
The Glasgow train appear
And hopes maybe he'll hear
The shunting horn again
Nostalgia is his friend
Nostalgia is his friend

You've considered them the wrong way now
You've considered him the wrong way
You've considered them the wrong way now
You've considered him the wrong way

For them there is nothing
Much better to see
than a northern bound train
With a serial B3
A fifty year old
Brighton 22 ton
Listen, thanks Mr. Stephenson
Thanks Mr. Stephenson

He's off to fulfill
His life's great fascination
He's off to trainspot
At the great railway station
