Glory Train - Randy Newman

Will you all pass over?

Yes, Lord

Will you pass on over

And join the Lord?

Have you been redeemed?

Yes we have!

Have you been redeemed?

Yes we have!

Then you can pass on over…

You can join the Lord

I see some hard times coming

Fire and wind and rain

Billions of people, all scared of each other

Hearts full of envy and anger and pain

There on the edge of darkness

People come together again

Standing on the platform

Waiting for the glory train

Get on the glory train

Get on the glory train

They’ll be standing on the platform

Waiting for the glory train

Lift up your head and stand tall

Let faith be your only guide

With all that love inside you

Salvation cannot be denied

Just when the storm is breaking (The storm is breaking)

Just when no hope remains (No hope remains)

Rollin' into the station

Here comes the glory train

Get on the glory train

Get on the glory train

It’s rollin' into the station

Bound for glory, bound for glory

Get on the glory train

If I might intrude

Just for a moment

If only to inject a note of reality

On this festive occasion

In all my life

I don’t believe I’ve ever heard such bullshit

Even from You

A master of bullshit

You know it

I know it

It’s bullshit

Bullshit

All of the faith and prayer in the world

All of Your dumb show and circuses

You know it’s a lie

It’ll always be a lie

The invention of an animal

Who knows he’s going to die

Some fools in the desert

With nothing else to do

So scared of the dark

They didn’t know if they were coming or going

So they invented me

And they invented You

And other fools will keep it all going

And growing

Everybody!

We’re a figment of their imagination

A beautiful dream, it is true

A figment of their imagination

Me and You

And You know it

Me and You
