Less Active Railroad
[Verse 1]
I will relay a message to you
Straight from the heart, directly to you
Turn on your radios and pick up the noise
There's rules with reason and who's to disagree
No talk of treason in our history
And daddy's a parasite, we need your both boys
[Chorus]
No sense in getting pissed
If you can't take a risk
Go play on a less active railroad
Go play on a less active railroad
[Verse 2]
No well kept secret, what you must do
No feasible escape route for you
And now you know you're on your way
Roomed you with baseball, lets you watch TV
Taught you survival but nothing comes free
Only a matter of time before we have to pay
[Chorus]
No sense in getting pissed
If you can't take a risk
Go play on a less active railroad
Go play on a less active railroad
[Outro]
Go play on a less active railroad
Go play on a less active railroad
Go play on a less active railroad
Go play on a less active railroad
