But did he ever return? No, he never returned. And his fate is still unlearned. He may ride forever from White Flint to Ballston, He's the man who never returned. Charlie rode on the Red Line down to Metro Center And he changed for MacPherson Square. When he got there the computer told him "GO TO ADDFARE" Charlie couldn't get out of there. CHORUS Charlie rides up and down the escalators at Rosslyn, Crying: "What will become of me?" How can I afford to see my sister in Rockville Or my cousin in Cheverly? CHORUS Charlie's wife takes his lunch down to L'Enfant Plaza Ever day a quarter to two But the attendant say, "You can't eat on the Metro!" Oh, what's poor Charley going to do? CHORUS Now you citizens of D.C. don't you think it's a scandal? Look at Charlie getting thin and pale. Won't somebody help him: put a quarter in the Addfare And get Charlie off the Metrorail. Or else he'll never return, no, he'll never return What a sorry ending to my tale. He'll just ride forever looking for the Green Line, The phantom of the Metrorail. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Written in 1986 by Mimi Stevens and Phyllis Gonigam @parody @travel see also CHARLMTA filename[ METROAIL DC ===DOCUMENT BOUNDARY Related Lyrics Random lyrics: Mike Fink, Mill O Tiftys Annie, Mill Worker, Miller And The Lass, Miller Of Dee Jolly Miller, Miller Tae My Trade, Millers Will, Milwaukee Blues, Miner Lad, Miners Childs Dream, Miners Lifeguard, Mingulay Boat Song, Minstrel Boy, Miss Bailey, Miss Smith, Miss Suzy Had A Steamboat, Mister Fox, Mistletoe Bough, Moammar Said To His Men, Mobile, Modiewark, Molly And Tenbrooks, Molly Bawn Polly Vaughn, Molly Brannigan, Molly Malone, Monongahela Sal, Month Of May, Months, Monymustk Lads, Moon Dancing, Moonshiner, More Verses To Humoresque, More Wood, Mormond Braes, Morning Has Broken, Moscow Nights, Mother Is The Battle Over, Must Be Santa, Namibia Anthem Text, Nancy Brown, Nauru Anthem Text, Nauru Native Anthem Text, Navvy Boots, Nde Colores, Neath The Crust Of The Old Apple Pie, Ned Of The Hill, Nell Flahertys Drake, Nelly Bly, Neros Expedition, Net Hauling Song, Other Unknown song Lyrics 99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall Lyrics A Bird in a Gilded Cage Lyrics A Fenian Song Lyrics A Fool Such As I Lyrics A Friend Like You Lyrics A Hero of the Wrong War Lyrics A Horse Named Bill Lyrics A Hundred Years from Now Lyrics A Kangaroo Sat on an Oak Lyrics A Little Bit of Solitude Lyrics A Living Wage Lyrics ...Show All Other Artists Unknown Prophets Lyrics Unleashed Lyrics Unleashed Power Lyrics Unlimited Nation Lyrics Unlimited Sound Lyrics UNLOCO Lyrics Unlord Lyrics UNLV Lyrics Unni Wilhelmsen Lyrics Uno Svenningsson Lyrics All lyrics are property and copyright of their owners and are strictly for educational purposes only. lyricstrue.net Copyright © 2005-2007 All Rights Reserved., , Privacy policy
