you got your momma's bite and your daddy's eyes, and you better bet they're bloodshot, too yeah
nothing comes as much of a sweet surprise when i know i'm gonna be dealing with you
your cold hands they sweat something awful, a little something that you just cant lose
but by the time you drain it all to the floor, it's back again, and it's fightin' for food
so woah woah woah, baby slow down that train, you got another thing comin' and you don't see the rain
you aim and you shoot and you hit your mark, and you can do it again and again and again...
but these targets you're hittin' they got no spark, you're just pickin' on lost souls, but you go on livin'
some lucky fighter oughtta deal you out, just so you know everyone ain't trippin
maybe if he did, you'd finally shout, but if some sucker answered you'd just reel em right in
so woah woah woah, baby slow down that train, you got another thing comin' and you don't see the rain
maybe it's time someone told you that you're weak, weak-handed, weak-hearted, weak-mouthed
by the horizon you might finally see, and what you do with it then could still go south
but i'm hoping the light's rays bring some kinda change, and that you find you can finally do without
hurtin' poor people just to feel the pain, collecting numbers by the way you rouse
so woah woah woah, baby slow down that train, you got another thing comin' and you don't see the rain
