5:15
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Why should I care?
Why should I care?
Girls of fifteen
Sexually knowing
The ushers are sniffing
Eau de Cologning
The seats are seductive
Celibate sitting
Pretty girls digging
Prettier women
Magically bored
On a quiet street corner
Free frustration
In our minds and our toes
Quiet stormwater
M-m-my generation
Uppers and downers
Either way blood flows
(Inside, outside) leave me alone
(Inside, outside) nowhere is home
(Inside, outside) where have I been?
Out of my brain on the 5:15
Out of my brain on the train
Out of my brain on the train
On a raft in the quarry
Slowly sinking
Back of a lorry
Holy hitching
Dreadfully sorry
Apple scrumping
Born in the war
Birthday punching
He-man drag
In the glittering ballroom
Gravely outrageous
In my high heel shoes
Tightly undone
Know what they're showing
Sadly ecstatic
That their heroes are news
(Inside, outside) leave me alone
(Inside, outside) nowhere is home
(Inside, outside) where have I been?
Out of my brain on the 5:15
Out of my brain on the train
Out of my brain on the train
Why should I care?
Why should I care?
