lyrics

(ichi, ni, san, yon!)
(a station bell rings twice)

The clock says eleven fifty-eight
One foot on board, and one foot can wait
You're holding gyoza in a bag
Still warm — my heart's a waving flag
(the doors hiss open)

終電's leaving — let it leave
I know exactly what I need
(let it leave! let it leave!)

Miss the train! I'm running the other way
Miss the train! The night's too good to end
Miss the train! 行くぞ, we walk till day
Miss the train! Who needs to sleep, my friend?
(woah-oh-oh-oh)
First light home is still a way home

We split the gyoza on the bridge
Vending coffee burns in my hand
My battery died — I feel rich
Four hours to walk, and that's the plan
(まだまだ! not done yet!)

The first train hums at five-oh-two
We'll watch it come, then let it go too
(let it go too)
Some nights you only get one of

Miss the train! I'm running the other way
Miss the train! The night's too good to end
Miss the train! 行くぞ, we walk till day
Miss the train! Who needs to sleep, my friend?
(woah-oh-oh-oh!)

(the five-oh-two arrives)
Miss the train, miss the train
(行くぞ!) See you tonight again
