Intro: Verse I sit down on the train With my big pocketbook The guitar and a sugar-free drink I wipe the sweat off of my brow With the side of my arm And I take off all that I can I am trying not to have a bad day Now, everybody knows the way that is Verse Even though my baggage and I Are using up a two person seat I'm not trying to be funny But the guy who sits down next to me Is even bigger than that We are overflowing out of the seat And I can't look at him, he doesn't look at me Once you step on You might never get off Of the commuter train It doesn't go very far away But just the same It's a trip and a half Verse My face is pressed up against the window And through it I can see The reflection of the train I spy on the big guy sitting next to me He's drinking two beers And reading the New York Post Trying not to get in my way Now, everybody knows the kinda day that is Verse N.C. He is miserable N.C. And I am miserable N.C. We are miserable N.C. Can't we have a party N.C. Would he rather have a party N.C. After all we have to sit here N.C. And he's even drinking a beer N.C. I want to ask him what's his name N.C. But I can't 'cause I'm so afraid Of the man on the train Once you step on You might never get off Of the commuter train It doesn't go very far away But just the same It's a trip and a half
