riff x2
I found a picture of you oh
What hijacked my world at nights
We're back on the train (ooh, ah)
Ohh
Back on the chain gang
The circumstance beyond our control oh
riff x2
The powers that be
That forces us to live like we do
Therefore to ruin one day
I found a picture of you, oh
Those were the happiest days of my life
Now we're back on the train
Ohh
Back on the chain gang

I found a picture of you oh
What hijacked my world that night
To a place in the past we've been cast out of oh
Now we're back in the fight
We're back on the train hey
Aaaah, back on the chain gang
Circumstance beyond our control oh
The powers that be that force 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, hey
Aaaah, back on the chain gang
as accurate, but a hell of a lot easier.
(from Learning to Crawl, 1983)

Circumstance beyond our control, ohh oh-oh ohh ohhh
Back on the chain gang
The powers that be that force us to live like we do

Oh, oh, back on the chain gang
