Track 1

Easy Mode - Auto check enabled

Upstairs,

Which stops

I've a train

With the string,

From a string

So that's what I make,

That it feels

Let it rain!

But it hasn't worked yet.

With a brake

In the spring,

Cos it drops

It's a good sort of brake

Like a thing

And the wheels

In jerks,

So quick

With a brake,

When the day's all wet.

Which I make

Sort of thing,

Not string....

All stick

That you make

Who cares?

Which works

Stanza 1

So that's what I make,

When the day's all wet.

It's a good sort of brake

But it hasn't worked yet.

Stanza 2

Let it rain!

Who cares?

I've a train

Upstairs,

With a brake

Which I make

From a string

Sort of thing,

Which works

In jerks,

Cos it drops

In the spring,

Which stops

With the string,

And the wheels

All stick

So quick

That it feels

Like a thing

That you make

With a brake,

Not string....
