Under Your Thumb

I was standing in the station
being pounded by the rain
so I chose the last compartment
of a stationary train
felt someone get in behind me
but I never caught their eye
but I thought I heard a womans voice
whispering goodbye
So I lay down in the darkness
with the beer and coffee stains
and I stared out at the thunder
through the broken window panes
And although the storm was booming
like an engine in the sky
Im sure I heard a womans voice cry
Dont wanna be under your thumb forever
Dont wanna be under your thumb forever
Dont wanna be under your thumb
its over and done
Ill never be under your thumb forever
So I rolled myself a cigarette
and smoked it on my own
but it didnt stop the whispers
or the smell of her cologne
Then she rose up out of nowhere
and her hair was full of steam
and she stuck her head out the window
and screamed and screamed , she screamed!
Dont wanna be under your thumb forever
Dont wanna be under your thumb forever
Dont wanna be under your thumb
its over and done
Ill never be under your thumb forever
So I picked up an old newspaper to read
and I noticed something very strange indeed
So I looked a little closer
and it chilled me to the bone
'Woman throws herself from speeding train,
identity unknown'
But I recognized the picture of the woman who was dead
and underneath the picture it said
Dont wanna be under your thumb forever
Dont wanna beunder your thumb forever
Dont wanna be under your thumb
its over and done
Ill never be under your thumb forever
Dont wanna be under your thumb forever
Dont wanna be under your thumb forever
Dont wanna be under your thumb
its over and done
Ill never be under your thumb forever
