I came back to my hometown incognito To forget about it all Suddenly, I heard "hey there papito-pito-pito You don't ever give a call" whapba bup bup ba whapba bup bup ba whapba bup bup ba whapba bup bup ba Remember we used to skip school together Said to me drunk girl, police man Now, where have you been all my life I've been skipping school since then, yeah I've been watching trains Swiftly rolling by I've been jumping them Without long goodbyes To uncover rules of life And how to break them well And the key to my gypsy auto pilot And my story to tell, hey! Whapba bup bup ba Whapba bup bup ba Whapba bup bup ba Whapba bup bup ba So we ran to outskirts of our town To the working man dance hall Where all night we played piano-yano-yano Off the chairs about to fall Then we climbed the ladder to the attic Where once i showed her my first song Above the street where all them crazy dreamers Still talking nonsense all night long Whoa-o whoa-o Nonsense all night long Whoa-o whoa-o Still writing their first song I've been watching trains Swiftly rolling by I've been jumping them Without long goodbyes To uncover rules of life And how to break them well And the key to my gypsy auto pilot And my story to tell, hey! And we laugh, and we cry And we recited sacred text And we rose and we fell And then we said, ok what's next? But, if you keep on watching trains Swiftly, rolling by One day you will be gone Without long goodbyes To uncover rules of life And how to break them well And the key to your gonzo turbo gypsy auto pilot And your story to tell Story to tell
