[Intro] Come on, Dr. Gone Can you get a move on? Come on, Dr. Gone You’re slower than tomorrow [Verse 1] Station clock with a crooked grin Every second folding in Ticket punched but nowhere near All aboard the atmosphere Smoke stack coughing black and blue Everything except you moves Wheels are screaming down the line But you’re still killing time [Pre-Chorus] Tick tick — rust and steam Half awake inside a dream Push the throttle, pull the cord Why’s the engine so ignored? [Chorus] Come on, Dr. Gone Can you get a move on? Come on, Dr. Gone You’re slower than tomorrow Come on, Dr. Gone Hear the rails hum along Come on, Dr. Gone We’ve been waiting way too long [Verse 2] Calendar with broken teeth Every page beneath my feet You say “soon” like it’s a cure But soon’s a word I can’t endure Freight cars loaded up with doubt Shovel in and shovel out All this motion, all this sound Still you’re stuck underground [Pre-Chorus] Clack-clack — steel and bone Why’s the driver never home? Full speed but going nowhere Ghost in the engineer [Chorus] Come on, Dr. Gone Can you get a move on? Come on, Dr. Gone You’re slower than tomorrow Come on, Dr. Gone Hear the rails hum along Come on, Dr. Gone We’ve been waiting way too long [Bridge] Soon… soon… That’s what you say Soon… soon… But not today [Final Chorus] Come on, Dr. Gone Can you get a move on? Come on, Dr. Gone You’re slower than tomorrow Come on, Dr. Gone Hear the rails scream the song Come on, Dr. Gone We’re already halfway gone [Outro] [Instrumental]
