Here is your pass, here is your train,
Today all very best presented just for you:
In paradise to see again -
Three hundred years go by in cinematic view.
You took the prints, just as you should,
There is no contraband, since you are seraph-clean.
It’s all behind, was left for good,
The second class is not the upper class, but still.
All what was prophesied, it’s truly happening.
The train to heaven on the move - enjoy your trip!
Oh, how we wish - we all are really hankering
Not to die now, but just to fall asleep.
Here’s Platform Earth... Don’t feel depressed!
And do not shout, for He has deafened for our cries.
But one of us has gone to rest,
He will meet God, if there’s a god in paradise.
Please try to give Him our regards.
If you forget, we’ll pardon you, it’s not a crime.
Not many years are left for us,
We’ll hustle up, we’ll do our best to die on time.
All what was prophesied, it’s truly happening.
The train to heaven on the move - enjoy your trip!
Oh, how we wish - we all are really hankering
Not to die now, but just to fall asleep.
Not everyone earns rights for bliss,
But there is something we can do here anyway:
To fight, to sing - I do just this,
Then someone loves, while others plan to love one day.
There will be gone into the void -
The sons, grandchildren, and their sons for years untold.
And God forbid, if there’s a war:
Our great-grandchildren will be left out in the cold!
All what was prophesied, it’s truly happening.
The train to heaven on the move - enjoy your trip!
Oh, how we wish - we all are really hankering
Not to die now, but just to fall asleep.
You do not care, you’re deep asleep.
Enjoy your never-ending high you have embraced.
And as for me - a price so steep
I won’t be paying even for a good bookcáse.
Some guy will wake and shepherd you
Into a world where war and pain are in the past,
Where we have tamed the Hong Kong flu,
All’s tighten up - are you a happy fool, at last?
It’s time to part. The bell has tolled.
Enjoy the ride! I hope He watches you and guards!
And if there is a real god,
Please do remember, try to give Him our regards.
