i found a picture of you
oh
but hijack my world at night
to a place in the past we've been cast out of
now we're back in the fight
we're back on the train
oh
back on the chain gang
circumstance beyond the control oh
the phone the tv and the news of the world
got in the house like a pigeon from hell oh
through sand in our eyes and descended like flies
oh put us back on the train
oh
ah oh ah
oh
back on the chain gang
the powers that be that force us to live like we do
bring me to my knees
when i see what they've done to you
but i'll die as i stand here today
knowing that deep in my heart
they'll fall to ruin one day for making us part
i found a picture of you
oh
those are the happiest days of my life
like a break in the battle was your part
and the wretched life of a lonely heart
now we're back on the train
oh
back on the chain gang
oh
back on the chain gang
oh
back on the chain gang
back back back back on the chain gang
back back back back on the chain gang oh
