Water for Elephants the Musical - Anywhere/ Another Train Lyrics
The song is written by PigPen Theatre Co.
JACOB:
This train is bound for anywhere
I'm going there too
Don't care much where we end up
As long as it's new and free
Of everything behind me
The rain's been pounding down on me
Been hard to see
That fog is gone now
And everything's blue
And blue and blue and blue
Why hang your head and cry
There's miles and miles of sky
Choose one
And let it swallow you
That patch of Earth,
That person you were
Those people you loved
They're gone, move on
Rise up and above the ground
Not back and not down
But anywhere
They say that home
Is where your heart is
It's not the place you started
My heart is anywhere but home
These plains, these towns
These fields of amber grain
I'll go insane
Are filled with people leaving
People like me, they know
It's time to go
Anywhere
CAMEL:
Well, look at this
Where you headed to, kid?
JACOB: (spoken)
Wherever the train takes me
You mind if I come down?
CAMEL:
Don't really care,
Sorry to say, 'cause
You gotta find another train
WADE:
Got no room for bums on this train
CAMEL:
The whole country's on the run
You think you're the first one
To think to bum a ride?
Jump the line
I think you jumped the gun, son
JACOB: (spoken)
Tell you what,
We can talk about it
After you help me, alright?
CAMEL:
Believe, I do feel your pain
But you gotta find another train
JACOB: (spoken)
Somebody just give me a hand here,
Will you?
ALL:
Don't be expecting any handlin'
We ain't giving you no handouts, son
It don't matter if you're down and out
Ooh
Wooh ooh ooh oohelcome to the party
Ooh
Wooh ooh ooh oohe all got a sob story
Ooh
Booh ooh ooh oohut
You can sob your story that way
'Cause you gotta find another train
JACOB: (spoken)
Ok, Ok...
WALTER:
Yeah, yeah, yeah
We've all been there before
Some more than others
Running from your troubles
Well there ain't no easy way
CAMEL: (spoken)
Next station,
You best skedaddle,
We'll be in Utica by sunup
WADE: (spoken)
But we don't got room for strays
ENSEMBLE:
You gotta find another train
WADE:
Better yet,
I think we red-light the bum
ENSEMBLE:
You gotta find another train
JACOB:
Back off, mister!
I'm not here for your amusement
Keep pushing me
And I don't know what I might do
I'm not looking for a job
But I work a day for food
Just a day and I'll be gone
I've got nothing left to lose
CAMEL: (spoken)
You didn't jump just any old train, son
This here's the Benzini Brothers'
Most Spectacular Show on Earth
Welcome to the circus!
JACOB:
This train is bound for everywhere
CAMEL:
Alright folks, on with the show
JACOB:
Don't care much where we end up
CAMEL:
Get ready to haul out
JACOB:
I'm free
CAMEL:
A free pair of hand
JACOB:
Osf everything, behind me
CAMEL:
Our little circus,
Serendipity
JACOB:
Don't stop to think or feel
CAMEL:
Next stop, Utica
JACOB:
Focus on what is real
CAMEL:
I hear it's beautiful
This time of year
JACOB:
Unreal as it may seem to be
CAMEL:
With fields of suckers
JACOB:
As fa
ALL:
As the eye can see
JACOB:
That patch of Earth,
Those people you loved
They're gone, move on
ENSEMBLE:
Move on
JACOB:
Rise up and above the ground
ENSEMBLE:
Whole country's on the run
Anywhere, anywhere, anywhere
JACOB:
You'll find what you found
ENSEMBLE:
Anywhere, anywhere, anywhere
JACOB:
I hear it's beautiful
This time of year
ENSEMBLE:
Anywhere, anywhere, anywhere
JACOB:
Anywhere!
ENSEMBLE:
This train is bound for anywhere
CAMEL:
Gotta find another train
ENSEMBLE:
This train is bound for anywhere
JACOB:
Anywhere!
CAMEL:
Gotta find another train
ENSEMBLE:
This train is bound for anywhere
JACOB:
Anywhere!
CAMEL:
Gotta find another
ENSEMBLE:
This train is bound for
