Took a fast train to Eden Where Johnny took quite a beating Picking up the pieces of a broken shell Shell Stumbling down dead end streets With every soul sucker he meets Living like a king behind the gates of hell Hell The more he comes the more he goes The less he learns the more he knows He had the heart but it never shows The more he comes the more he goes Bones in the bowery bathroom The kids from the back of the classroom Each one a mausoleum of mind Mind Finer things so you can live better Loafers and a cashmere sweater Everyone's a worker in the diamond minds The more he comes the more he goes The less he learns the more he knows He had the heart but it never shows The more he comes the more he goes
