The Mystery Trend - Julian Cope

The mystery train

Is on its way

Catch a lot of sinners

Be home any day

When you get down

To the base of the brain

You’re onto

The mystery train

The driver said, «Hi»

It’s a heavy load

And it’s waiting for you

At the end of the road

When you get down

To the start of the end

You’re onto

The mystery trend

Going high, high

Going down

Idiot savant

In the back of the train

Echoing still

Inside of his brain

Being carried on

By his maiden aunts

His parents don’t love him

Because he’s an idiot savant

He’s going high, high

He’s going down

He’s going high, high

But he’s going down

Now the mystery train

Is on its way

You catch a lot of sinners

Be home in a day

When you get down

To the start of the end

Then you’re onto

The mystery trend

Yeah you’re onto

The mystery trend

Then you’re onto

The mystery trend
