venezuela (hating trains)

There's a whaleback
I'm standing arms up
London will be where they bury me
And I'll look at you from underground

There's a whaleback
I'm standing on it
Venezuela will be the death of me
Though it's purple on the map

Lately I've been hating trains
Because they take me away from you

There's a whale back
We're riding on it
Passing notebook paper
On an umpteenth river
Frightened in the bushes dancing
Venezuela will be the death of me
And it's purple on the map

That's the story of my life

Venezuela will be the death of me
