Railroad Jerk - Halfway Across lyrics

We are halfway across the Atlantic The captain's given orders "do not panic" The chandeliers are shaking Looks like the storm is breaking The captain's rea**uring smiling while a drop of wine falls on his knees We are halfway across the Atlantic The band has gone and taken all its music The maid of honor's waiting This is her maiden voyage Her sister caught the bouquet with her teeth she was the one who requested a honeymoon suite For ten days now the engines have been smoking I asked the porter if something had been broken The banquet room is under There's lighting and there's thunder You can hear the ocean hiss and foam no one is home just empty champagne gla**es I held on fast until the sun had risen A ship was coming on the horizon The smoke poured forth full blast I knew I was saved at last I thought back to sometime in 1985 when all the world was round ...and we were halfway across the Atlantic
