It was trains which made town clocks match their time
Now glass doors stop phones falling on the line
With the passing of time all will be fine
Lifts beside stairs on Elizabeth line
Modern Singapore, long travelators
Old London still has deep escalators
In St Pancras, a Champagne bar
On long journeys, a dining car
Signs tell you don't put your feet on the seat
Big stations have places where you can meet
See Brunel's statue, lovers, Paddington bear
On long journeys, quiet stories to share
What are those tee-shirts the people are bringing
After football matches the winners are singing
Amusing people to see, hear them speak
Watch for your stop and don't fall asleep!
