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. 



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
