Lyrics:

Flashman's in the belfry
he's shouting as loud as he can
Samson's up all night again, talking about himself
- what a wonderful man !
And I'm just wild about Ronnie
and Ronnie's just wild about me
I saw him selling winter coats on the Portobello Road
I thought I bet he wishes he was really working
for the NME

When the gang came down here again
and they're phoning up Australia and they're scaring all my friends
and they all just want to look like Richard Hell and Tom Verlaine
Some of my best friends are trains

Steven's in a sweat
- he just can't read Kerouac books
and Robin's all excuses,
says he can't much but he does look
He goes up to the playfair
He goes down with the stars
He goes wild of a weekend
in a girlfriend's car
And he calls me from Chelsea and he says it's such a thrill
I don't believe a word but he keeps me talking till...

The gang come down here again
and they're phoning up Australia and they're scaring all my friends
and they all just want to look like Richard Hell and Tom Verlaine
Some of my best friends are trains

And did you ever have one of those days
when the world is wide open and you can do anything
and you can go anywhere and you don't have to think
about who you'll offend every time that you even blink
I'm going to the station where a big red train
is waiting to take me to the country again
and you'll call from Yonkers but why should I care
It'll ring and ring for days and days but I won't be there...

When the gang comes down here again
and they're phoning up Australia and scaring all my friends
and they all just want to look like Hell and Verlaine
Some of my best friends are trains

Westbourne Park, London October 1982
