Twice As Nice

The doors will soon be closing
And you’ll wonder what’s behind them
Who is watching you through tinted windows
Pointing at your funny shoes
Which way will you choose to jump aboard
And close your books to take a second look
Well, it’s all gone
Yes, it just faded
In a blinking of a «what is that»
I hear another train arriving
One that’s headed north
Carrying people who have jobs
And heavy consciences
Consciences
But I think you look nice
Twice as nice as anybody else
So, please don’t lose your mind
'Cause it doesn’t belong to anybody else
No, it doesn’t belong to anybody else
Maybe I should join the multitudes
And climb the rusty mountain
With a good 78 years ahead
Maybe even two
And when I’m through
I’ll have more money
And a parking spot
And kids who wonder
What to make of their fortunate lot
I’m afraid you haven’t noticed
You forgot to pack your teddy
Or perhaps he wasn’t ready
To leave all of it behind
The trains will keep on running
And they’ll still think you look funny
'Cause you’re wearing your pajamas
And you haven’t lost your smile
But I think you look nice
Twice as nice as anybody else
So, please don’t lose your mind
'Cause it doesn’t belong to anybody else
No, it doesn’t belong to anybody else
Are la-las stupid?
No, I use las all the time
I love las
