I think I'll rob a train
And move to South America
Wander off in the rain
Come out smiling, and dry
Legend, fortune, and fame
I will be stuff of headlines
Another household name
To be disgarded with time
If theirs one thing I've learned, from this life of crime
When it's all over, split up the money and go your own way
And if you get caught, don’t say nothing, just stay in line
Till your chance comes and you can make your next, getaway
I must admit, It's strange
These visions of empty ballrooms
And the sound of a sad refrain
Like a smoke ring, floating by
But the Omen already came,
In the form of a pear tree
That grows out of a cave
Into a crystal, waterfall
If theirs one thing I've learned, from this life of crime
When it's all over, split up the money and go your own way
If you get caught, don't say nothing, just stay in line
Till your chance comes, you can make next, getaway
As a child, I dreamed
I was geronimo
And all the gifts I received
Were from my enemies, and my friends alike
