Lyrics[edit | edit source]
Riding the underground
Swimming in sweat
A rumble above and below
Hey, cop, don’t you know
The heat's on, all right
The hot summer day didn't quit for the night
Twelve-seven-seven, express to heaven
Speeding along like dynamite
Twelve-seven-seven, express to heaven
Rumbles the steel like a dogfight
You caught me in its spell
Trying to leave but you know darn well
The heat from below can burn your eyes out
Blackened out eyes
Scratched on the wall
Stoned out looks from the crowd
The king will not know
On the wall, it was said
The flash of his cards was sprayed with red
Twelve-seven-seven, express to heaven
Speeding along like dynamite
Twelve-seven-seven, express to heaven
Rumbles the steel like a dogfight
You caught me in its spell
Trying to leave but you know darn well
The heat from below can burn your eyes out
Twelve-seven-seven, express to…
Twelve-seven-seven, express to…
Twelve-seven-seven, express to heaven
Speeding along like dynamite
Twelve-seven-seven, express to heaven
Rumbles the steel like a dogfight
You caught me in its spell
Trying to leave but you know darn well
The heat from below can burn
Yeah, burn!
Your eyes out
Your eyes out
Your eyes out!
Out! Out! Out! Out!
Out! Out! Out! Out!
