MST3K: Train Song - What a pleasant journey

The Train Song from MST3K - The Girl in Lovers Lane (509). One of my favourite songs/skits of the whole show. Sorry for the mediocre video quality, tried my best! Enjoy!

Lyrics:
-------------------------
I hear that train comin',
Comin' round the hill.
I hope that is my train,
I better check my schedule.
Oops, that was the train to Appleton,
but it's going to Circle Pines.
And I've got twenty minutes to kill;
It's a good thing I brought some magazines.

Been ridin' on this old train,
Been ridin' it all night.
I think I'll go to the club car,
And get myself a bite.
Mm, this tuna melt sammich really tastes quite nice.
Oh, got sesame seeds in the bun!
'Cause it comes with cole slaw and a pickle,
And I must say it's reasonably priced.

The 5.15 from Duluth
Oh my! It just derailed!
The toxic waste is spillin',
the conductor's been impaled.
A benzine cloud has risen
and the whole town's startin' to cough.
Within in a matter of daaaaaaays,
All of our skin will fall off.

@Wyndchill That's very interesting, thanks for sharing!

For those of you that don't know, Crow's verse was an inside joke about a train accident that year up near Duluth, MN. A train derailed and a chemical tanker car spilled something (manifests were rather sketchy about exactly what). A bluish cloud of chemical vapor drifted across Superior, Duluth, and out into Lake Superior. It happened on 7/1/92. Look it up if you like.

@thenutintheushanka18 Riveting tale, chap.

[Capng123]

It's now fundamentally impossible for me to make a tuna sammich and NOT think about this song.

Thank you MST3K for making me laugh... at lunch... again.

God, I LOVE THIS!

I Love These Things: Sweet Joelie's "magazynes", Servo's 'Tuna Melt Sammich', Crow's Toxic Disaster and Joel & The Bot's sudden foray into Gary Numan..."IN CARS!"

Mm this tuna melt sammich sure tastes quite nice! (oh got little sesame seeds on the bun) It comes with coleslaw and a pickle and I must say it's reasonably priced!
