Riding the underground, swimmin' in sweat
A rumble above and below, hey, cop don't you know?
The heats on alright
The hot summer day didn't quit for the night
1277 express to heaven
Speeding along like dynamite
1277 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, yeah yeah
1277 express to heaven
Speeding along like dynamite
1277 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
1277 express to, 1277 express to
1277 express to heaven
Speeding along like dynamite
1277 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
