Lyric

On a train now, going far away

Leaving home now, a new place to stay

Got a suitcase, and a small gun

Got a new hat, ready for fun

On a travel, to foreign lands

Last stop is, the land of Japan

The first stop is, lake town Hallstatt

Heard it’s picturesque, want to stay the night

High altitude mountain air will do me good

My rudimentary German misunderstood

My tailor made suit, will be respected

Small snaps bottles, will be collected

This, classic train, is how, I imagined it

Chandeliers, butlers and rooms are candle lit

Sleeper rooms with no bunk beds

Bottle of wine, all to myself

But at night there are very many strange sounds

Someone’s sneaking through the hall

Someone’s yelling in the night

Listening for threats in the dark

Keep my gun close to my heart

My back is against the wall

Eyes locked on the door

I have already made an escape plan

Jump out the window

Before I have to waste a man

Run into the dark

Where they cannot see me

Eat a packed lunch

Surviving is so easy

Befriend some bears

Become their king

Eat fresh salmon

And run with the wind

Form a new country

Call it New Bear Land

Start a few wars

Become the world’s richest man

A bang wakes me up

I must have been asleep

Commotion in the hall

The voice yelling is so deep

Did anyone, see

Did anyone, hear her

The voice grows grave

There has been a murder

Everyone is gathered in the restaurant car

A small chubby is standing by the bar

With a round hat and a small mustache

His manners are mild but his eyes are hard

The general is sitting in the corner with his gun

The diva by the window with a smoke and a rum

The servant boy has his eyes fixed on the floor

Police man is hiding in the shadow of the door

The small round man, starts his deduction

Pacing up and down, talking of destruction

The general had been there, early in the night

The diva paid a visit, under guise of a fright

The servant came by, to ask for his master

But when there was no answer, he feared disaster

He tried to open but the door was locked from the inside

He tried to yell but it was no returned for a long time

But who was the one, that saw him last

Who is the one, that knew him from the past

Who has the key, to every door

Who has money, but still wants more

The police man starts running

The police man starts running
