The Loadout Needle Wanders

[Ներածություն] [Տուն 1] Car after car rolls under my hand The hopper says light; the crew says we’re grand I watch that red needle wander and stall Steel wheels keep waiting beside the loadout wall [Կրկներգ] Hold that train—those numbers lie I’m on the scale till the readings align One more car, one more test, one more grind You can’t ship short on a bad load line [Տուն 2] I zero the panel, then weigh the known Turn the small screw with my knuckles gone raw The conductor’s yelling, the manager swears “Send it tonight or explain what’s not there” [Կրկներգ] Hold that train—those numbers lie I’m on the scale till the readings align One more car, one more test, one more grind You can’t ship short on a bad load line [Guitar solo] [Կրկներգ] Hold that train—those numbers lie I’m on the scale till the readings align One more car, one more test, one more grind You can’t ship short on a bad load line [Ելք] Read it again. Now it holds.
