Lyrics Over the Points - Ian Dury , The Blockheads
Dury-Turnbull
Thank
you
I
am
an
actual
train,
believe
it
or
not,
believe
it
or
not
I
carry
you
backwards
and
forth,
South
and
north
on
down
the
line
and
up
Before
they
shunt
me
into
the
final
Siding,
I
wish
to
make
a
few
points
Whenever
I
have
a
breakdown
all
my
Passengers
start
talking
to
each
other
They
can
sit
walk
sleep
or
have
a
tidy
as
I
hurtle
along
Sometimes
we
track
this
line
with
Decapitated
schoolboy's
heads
still
wearing
their
caps
Upon
me
at
any
given
moment
ten
or
twelve
People
might
be
taking
craps
over
the
points
I've
transported
enormous
frivolity
And
fearful
violence
in
my
carriages
I've
got
compartments
for
sex,
birth,
Death
and
occasional
train
spotters
marriages
Believe
you
me,
There
are
some
right
eccentrics
walking
up
and
down
my
corridors
Picture
the
consternation
in
my
bogies
when
my
drivers
had
a
drink
All
over
the
shop
hundreds
of
people
Invariably
male
write
our
numbers
down
We,
as
trains,
Are
agreed
that
this
is
because
we
are
extremely
phallic
Nobody
seems
frightened
on
board
us
because
we
hardly
ever
crash
We've
been
squashing
pennies
for
well
over
a
century
People
love
it
when
they're
robbed
and
they
Wave
at
us
and
are
happy
watching
us
going
passed
Can
you
imagine
how
pleasant
it
is
in
general
being
an
iron
horse?
I'm
quite
chuffed
Last
train
to
Wanking
Panda
Last
train
to
Wanking
Panda
If
you
miss
this
one
you'll
never
get
another
one
Iddybiddy
arseholes
to
Wanking
Panda
