RatTrain

[Verse 1]
Not too smart, just out of school
A teachers pet and modern fool
Talked about being a freelance broker
But the police caught him trying to choke her
Can't describe him in his corner, no, no
Like a rat out of the water, out of work and out of grass
Mother Mary never seems to stop to talk, she just walked on past
Down down, no information, one day always, away

[Chorus]
And why, why, can't I see you
One day always away
And why, why, can't I be you
One day always away

[Verse 2]
He's out of school now, just another taken barstool
And this neighborhood ain't what he had in mind, no, no
Wants to be your girlfriend and wants to be your boyfriend
Wants to be your telephone, wants to, wants to be your own man

[Chorus]
And why, why, can't I see you, one day always away
Why why, can't I be you
One day always away [x4]
Always away [x2]
Down down, no information

Train

Train is an American rock band from San Francisco, formed in 1993. The band currently consists of Patrick Monahan (lead vocals), Luis Maldonado (guitar), Hector Maldonado (bass, vocals), Drew Shoals (drums), Jerry Becker (keyboards, guitar), Sakai Smith (backup vocals), and Nikita Houston (backup vocals).

With a lineup that included original members Monahan, Rob Hotchkiss, Jimmy Stafford, Scott Underwood, and Charlie Colin, the band achieved mainstream success with their debut album Train, which was released in 1998 with the hit “Meet Virginia”. Train’s 2001 album, Drops of Jupiter contained the lead single “Drops of Jupiter (Tell Me)”, which won two Grammy Awards in 2002. The album was certified double platinum in the United States and Canada and remains the band’s best-selling album to date.

Train’s third studio album, My Private Nation, released in 2003, was certified platinum in the United States with the hit “Calling All Angels”. Following the departures of Hotchkiss and Colin, the band released their fourth album, For Me, It’s You in 2006, with Brandon Bush (keyboards) and Johnny Colt (bass). Despite a generally positive reception from critics, the album was commercially unsuccessful. Because of this, Train went on a two-year hiatus from recording any new music.
