Brings the excitement, yes you do, oh Choo Choo Train.
 
It's a zone I don't yet know
That I'm aiming for tonight.
Real-time stops at the edge of time.
Everyone cries or smiles.
I forget yesterday,
Toss it all off and be free on a good trip.
 
A freak will be in the moonlight
If I invite my bro.
Everyone rolls it on up, hurry up edge of time.
In my heart, who's that guy?
I reach out and I don't care.
Merry sympathy
We become one just now.
 
Fun, fun, we hit the step, step
So don't keep yourself to yourself, we know, we love, oh
