The Day Steam Returned

[Intro] [Verse one] Since the day steam returned and modernity disappeared Our rural town, cried with joy, celebrated and cheered No more diesels and electrics to poison and depress us No more will our children, cry and make a fuss [Verse two] The sights and sounds of the steam engines healed us completely From modernity, diesels and electrics we all are now free Pain and sadness are now long gone and bad has turned to good Living our best lives, like we all must should [Instrumental] [Bridge] Once more, there is magic in life No more pain, suffering and strife The world around us, became oh, so good and pure We shall live this wonderful life, goodness we ensure [Chorus] The day steam returned A time that we all yearned Steam engines were the cure to it all Not politics or big wigs trying to stand tall [Instrumental] (Steam returned to the rails and life is better as a result) [Verse three] Steam engines are the embodiment of good and morality Built by ours and our ancestor's hands, loved by all of humanity With this new era of steam, it's a magical time to be alive With them chuffing and huffing on our rails, we all will thrive [Verse four] Diesels, electrics, modernity and all the pain disappeared Gone were the bad days, we suffered through and feared We had enough, we screamed and shouted for steam engines to return To never abandon the glory of steam, was a lesson to learn [Bridge] Now the evil of replacing steam has been put right Modernity, diesels and electrics, now out of sight No more will our minds and souls scream in pain We now have the incredible joy of riding a daily steam train [Chorus] The day steam returned A time that we all yearned Steam engines cured it all By our will, we saw modernity fall [Outro]
