Crazy, but that's how it goes Millions of people living as foes and maybe it's not too late to learn how to love Forget how to hate
And the mental wound's not healing Life's a bitter shame I'm going off the rails on a crazy train I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
I've listened to preachers I've listened to fools and I've watched all the dropouts make their own rules One person conditioned to rule and control and the media sells it and you live the role
And the mental wound's still screaming Driving me insane I'm going off the rails on a crazy train I've been going off the rails on a crazy train I've been going off the rails on a crazy train
OH, MAN, THAT RIFF!
The heirs of a cold war That's what we've become Inheriting nothing I'm mentally numb I'm crazy, I cannot bear living with something that just isn't fair
And the mental wound's not healing Life's a bitter shame I'm going off the rails on a crazy train I'm going off the rails on a crazy train I've been going off the rails on a crazy train I've been going off the rails on a crazy train
