Songtexte - The Tunnel

2. Fat Guy

07:12

He's not a handsome man, age of 23
small and overweight, nothing much to see
he grabs his briefcase in the hall, trudges down the stairs
every morning just the same, as he babbles and he swears.

He makes his way to the station, watches the trains roll in
lurches through the crowd and buys a magazine.
Searching for his platform, he starts to pant and sweat
his bulky body sways, his face is turning red

he climbs aboard the train, squeezes through the aisles
rocking back and forth, he needs to rest a while
in his favourite compartment, he slumps into the seat
watching the people outside, he's ready to go now.

don't wanna feel the things they feel
don't want to do the things they do
don't wanna see behind those eyes and hear the lies
don't wanna feel the things they feel
don't wanna do the things they do
don't wanna think about the world and where the world is coming to

Train doors closing now...
