The light at the end of your tunnel, is an oncoming train
You just came in to get out of the rain
And now you're back in your old ways again (x2)

(Chorus) Your clock's ticking like that tain on the track
You've got a chip on your shoulder, you've got a monkey on your back
Suddenly you see, It's not what you thought it would be
No matter what you're told, it's just the fear of getting old

The light at the end of your tunnel, is an oncoming train
You don't need anyone else to explain
That it's the cause of your tears and your pain (x2)

(Chorus)

It's just the fear of getting old, it's just the fear (x4)

The light at the end of your tunnel, is an oncoming train
You know you'll never get out of the way
Unless you listen to all that I say

(Chorus)
