"Train of Consequences"
I'm doing you a favor
As
I'm taking all your moneyI guess I should feel sorry
But I don't even trust me
There's bad news creeping up
And you feel a sudden chill
How do you do?
My name is troubleI'm coming in for the kill...
And you know I will
Set the ball A-Rollin
I'll be clicking off the miles
On the train of consequences
My boxcar life O' style
My thinking is derailed
I'm tied up to the tracksThe train of consequences
There ain't no turning back
No horse ever ran as fast
As the money that you betI'm blowing on my cards
And I play them to my chest
Life's fabric is corrupt
Shot through with corroded threadAs for me I hocked my brains
Packed my bags and headed west
Megadeth (1994)
Will talk about this song in class this week. You don't have to go look for it online to listen to it - I'll play it in class. Anyway you may not like what you hear for many reasons - hence it won't be emdeded here either. But just make a guess what the song is about. It's underlying meaning may give you a clue about why I like this song, and Megadeth, a heavy metal band, in general. Let the music move you! - Mr Tarn
