Lyrics for A Subway Called 'You' as interpreted by ButNeverOutgunned

A Subway Called 'You' Lyrics
Here we are
We drift like gas
On someone else's bed
I pay high you know

Here we are
How old are you?
It's just a job to me

Here the ladies always ring twice
Thought you'd slip away tonight with me
In a subway I called 'you'

Hello you
No more this talk of
'My boys will be yours'
No more 'I'
This conversation drains
My patience dry

Here the business always rings twice
No relaxing for the boys tonight
In a subway I called 'You'

Here the tension always shows twice
Shed one tear
It's just routine - for now

I always thought this song was pretty clearly written about a prostitute. The imagery Numan uses paints a seedy and sad portait and the music nicely slides and glides around the words. I also like how Numan depicts (his) emotional detachment.

I definitely agree.. a subway cause it's cheap and easy. "shed one tear" though? maybe the whole idea of it is just sad..
