Hold the Nine Car

[Кіріспе] [Wah-bent chord, cut dead] [Two clipped triplet stabs] [Snare-led drums enter] [Full riff] [Куплет 1] Rush-hour car on track nine Pantograph snaps; the feeder trips Platform packed against the glass I grab the roof key, check the fuse [Қайырма] Hold that car; clear the line One dead arm can stop the town You send the routes around the yard I bring the power back down [Куплет 2] Dispatcher calls the southbound loop Red boards blink across the bay I brace one boot against the rail And work the fuse by hand, inch by inch [Қайырма] Hold that car; clear the line One dead arm can stop the town You send the routes around the yard I bring the power back down [Guitar solo] [Harmonized twin-guitar passage] [Wah-swept lead solo] [Көпір] The crowd is counting every minute Your reroute keeps the platform moving I set the fuse, then test the arm Give me the word; i’ll raise it slow [Қайырма] Hold that car; clear the line One dead arm can stop the town You send the routes around the yard I bring the power back down
