Evil is

           No easy breath in the steel jaws
           of the cold,ruthless,hard mind.
           And evil is where evil lives
           hell bent and working fine
           at flat out speed,spitting blood;
           a sleek killer on a dark line
           below the bridge
                 on that clouded night
          while dead ahead and out of sight
          that train comes to a grinding halt
          dripping hate by forgotten platforms
          by the broken glass of sightless windows
          and boarded doors
                for there is no porter
                     he's gone to dust
                        like the station master
         Bones and worm
                     he's done his duty
         while what you see is hallucination.
                    What you think
                          is called Madness.
        Still,evil is where evil lives
        and you recall you bought a ticket.
        Think hard!
        Yes,you got it.
        A one way night car destination
        and the price was hate
                          and greed
                              and anger.
        Now you're on that bridge that it
               went under
        and the stone is cold and you life ill ordered.
        so JUMP!
        Don't Jump!
        for the devil's waiting
        down that track in an old station
        where the clock has stopped
        and you're whistle's blowing.
        Don't worry though,he'll keep waiting,
        for he's just going to punch your ticket
        CLICK!
        CLANG
        goes the alarm bell
        and you're off and going to he......
        ....llo listeners,it's a new morning
        Wake up folks,the record's rolling
        while relief seap's in at old surroundings
        and dreams fade in warm sunlight
        as you head on out for more gut grabbing
        and those drivers make you real angry
        so you buy a ticket
        from as stranger
        where you just might win that big
                                      fat
                                      lottery..........
          
        


                inspired by the song(under my thumb)by Godley and Creme
