Rudy's on a train to nowhere, halfway down the line
He don't wanna get there, but he needs time
He ain't sophisticated, no well-educated

After all the hours he's wasted, still he needs time
He needs time - he needs time for livin'
He needs time - for someone just to see him

He ain't had no lovin' for no reason or rhyme
And he whole world's above him
Well it's not us thought he's fat

No there's more to it than that
See he tries to play in school
Wouldn't be nobody's fool

Rudy thought that all good things comes to those what wait
But recently he could see that it may come too late
All through your life, all through the years

Nobody loved, nobody cared
So dim the light, dark are your fears
Try as I might, I can't hold back the tears

How can you live without love, it's not fair?
Someone said give, but I just didn't dare
What good advice are you waiting to hear?

Hearing's alright for them that's all there
You'd better gain control now
You'd better show 'em all now

You'd better make or break now
You'd better give and take now
You'll have to push and shove now

You'll have to find some love now
You'd better gain control now
Now he's just come out the movie

Numb of all the pain
Sad but in a while he'll soon be
Back on his train...
