Whatever happened to the great escape

The finest enemy.

Crafted with pride by monsters on the train.

The world is great to suckers


We have the story of the impossible

A tale passed on so frail

One of make-belief

Maybe impossible to achieve

And really close


Who sew the lion's hungry in the cage

With the confidance of a clown

The little man who rises on the stage

As he falls without a safety net


We have the story of the impossible

A tale passed on so frail.

One of make-belief

Maybe impossible to achieve

And really close


Whatever happened to the great escape

And all the plans we make

Crafted with pride by Monsters on the train.

The world is great to suckers.


We have the story of the impossible

A tale passed on so frail.

One of make-belief

Maybe impossible to achieve

But oh so close
