Light At The End Of The Tunnel |
Diesel is for unbelievers |
Electricity is wrong |
Steam has got the power |
That will pull us along |
There’s a light at the end of the tunnel |
There’s a light at the end of the tunnel |
The inside might be as black as the night |
But there’s a light at the end of the tunnel |
There’s a light at the end of the tunnel |
The inside might be as black as the night |
But at the end of the tunnel, there’s a light |
It’s the power of James Watt |
The steamin' Scot |
It’s the man who watched the pot |
And said, «Hey, I’ve got |
A brilliant plot, when the steam gets hot |
It seems to make a lot of power |
It could turn a wheel |
It could drive it down the track |
It could drive it with a beat |
With enough left over for a,» woo |
He saw the light at the end of the tunnel |
He saw the light at the end of the tunnel |
Well, thanks, James Watt, for watchin' that pot |
He saw the light at the end of the tunnel |
He saw the light at the end of the tunnel |
The inside might be as black as the night |
But at the end of the tunnel, there’s a light |
There are dark days ahead |
When the power goes dead |
When the oil runs dry |
(Mmm, what can we try?) |
(We could use the sunlight) |
(But it don’t shine at night) |
(Nuclear fission leaves a nasty emission) |
Soon the pistons will be hummin' |
Steam will have a second coming, oh |
I see the light at the end of the tunnel, oh |
I see the light at the end of the tunnel, oh |
Just dig a hole and haul out the coal |
I see the light at the end of the tunnel |
I see a light at the end of the tunnel |
So let that water boil, goodbye to oil |
At the end of the tunnel, there’s a light |
We see the light at the end of the tunnel |
(We see the light, we see the light) |
We see the light at the end of the tunnel |
(We see the light, we see the light, we see the light) |
When that angel Gabriel blows his magic toot |
See the light at the end of the tunnel |
(We see the light, we see the light) |
We see the light at the end of the tunnel |
(We see the light, we see the light, we see the light) |
So let that water boil, goodbye to oil |
At the end of the tunnel, there’s a light |
Well, there’s a light |
At the end of the tunnel |
We see the light |
At the end of the tunnel |
See the light, oh |
We see the light |
At the end of the tunnel |
At the end, way, way down |
At the end, hey, hey, hey |
We see the light |
We see the light, oh |
See the light |
We see the light |
Hey, won’t you see it? |
Hey, don’t you see it? |
We see the light |
Hey, don’t you see it? |
Hey, come on down… |
