Lyrics

This is the place the rats come to die
This is the crossroads for you and I
To the left is a wilderness of animal fun
To the right is a vacuum of life in the sun
Behind is a dirt-track that was our survival
Ahead the fear-factories await our arrival
This is the place we'll be spending our time
They call it the hotel nineteen sixty nine
It's such a cute name for a nightmare machine
The bellboy wears jackboots and keeps the place clean
Behind is a dirt-track that was our survival
Ahead the fear-factories await our arrival
Reversal boys with frozen shoulders
Slouch around on sleazy corners
Wimpies, woolies, the High Street existence
Mainline resistance is low
Reversal boys with swollen shoulders
Rubbing up the late-night grocers
Mars Bars, players, organic existence
Mainline resistance is low
Reversal boys with cans of dog meat
Heavy breathing in the backstreet
Late night films and all night brainstorms
Mainline resistance is low
Reversal boys with frozen shoulders
Kicking sounds in moonlight bombsight
Mooney eyes and bombed-out brain box
Mainline trains could never find drivers
To run a service out to here
