Different Trains Lyrics

Da da-dow da-dow da-da-da
Da da-dow da-dow da-da-da
Da da-dow da-dow da-da-da
Da da-dow da-dow da-da-da

(Joe) I invented penicillin
(John) While I found a plaster
(Joe) I've got fifty caps
(John) I've just got the one

(John) But it's not a race if no-one's winning
(Joe) It's just I move faster
(John) And now the hare and the tortoise
(John) Roll into town

(Both) There's no need to worry
You don't have to hurry
We're two different trains

Who arrive at a station
The same destination
In different ways

Da da-dow da-dow da-da-da
Da da-dow da-dow da-da-da

(Joe) For me, the girls are always willing
(John) I'm a romantic disaster
(Joe) I take the things that are brown and I make them green
(John) I'm happy blue

(John) But it's not a race that's worth winning
(Joe) I've been meaning to ask you
(Both) Are you the hare or the tortoise?
(Both) As we roll into town

(Both) There's no need to worry
You don't have to hurry
We're two different trains

Who arrive at a station
The same destination
In different ways

There's no need to worry
You don't have to hurry
We're two different trains

Who arrive at a station
The same destination
In different ways

(Both) There's no need to worry
You don't have to hurry
We're two different trains

Who arrive at a station
The same destination
In different ways

Da da-dow da-dow da-da-da
Da da-dow da-dow da-da-da
Da da-dow da-dow da-da-da
Da da-dow da-dow da-da-da
