She said stay in your room.
And be quiet.
She said children should be seen
And not heard.
Now she’s sitting there
Quietly crying.
Mama don’t say no words.
No no.
No go!
No get outa my way!
No nothing never matters, whatever
You say!
Not today!
The cat’s away
‘Nat’s okay.
Causa what they say…
You make a better door than
A window.
Thank you, friend.
Barry out.
Get your tickets ready please!
Oh uh, hello there. How you doing?
Listen, my name is Barry and I'm the Conductor on this train so if you need anything, you just ask me, okay?
The bathrooms are right over there and please, pick up after yourself on account of I clean the place, too.
And uh, seeing as you're not from around here I'll just tell you straight out - although every story you might hear on this train is true, some stories are "truer" than others, if you can read between the rails...
Anyway, thanks for stopping by and, y'all come back now, y'hear?
Have a grand day, friend.
