There at the stoplight was a little sleeper car
G# D#
With power that you can't see
G# C#
Painted drab, but then that's the way they are
D#
But that little sleeper car's not foolin' me.

My friends with guts tell me that I'm nuts,
Fm C#
But Ive seen all I need to see.

Now my friends who've been right in the past

And of course at first glance right they are

But that's because it's a sleeper car.
