I found a picture of you oh oh oh oh
You had hijacked my world at night
To a place in the past
we've been passed out of oh
Now we're back in the fight
We're back on the train (ooh, ah)
Back on the chain gang
circumstance beyond our control oh
The phone, TV and
the news of the world
Got in the house like a pigeon from hell,
oh oh oh oh
Threw sand in our eyes
and descended like flies
And Put us back on the train, yeah
Back on the chain gang
The powers that be
That forces us to live like we do
Bring me to my knees
When I see what they've done to you
Well, I'll die as I stand here today
Knowing that deep in my heart
They'll fall to ruin one day
I found a picture of you, oh
Those were the happiest days
of my life
Like a break in the battle
was your part, oh
In the wretched life of a lonely heart
Now we're back on the train
Ohh
Back on the chain gang
