Now let me tell you a story

Of a big ole' skinhead

On a tragic and fateful day

He put 10 cents in his pocket

Kicked his wife and family

And went to ride on the m.b.t.a.

[Chorus]

Did he ever return,

No he never returned

And his fate is still unknown

He may ride forever

Neath the streets of boston

He's a skinhead who never returned.

Skinhead goes down to the kendall sq. station

And he changes for jamaica plain,

The conductor says skinhead I need a nickel,

Skinhead punches him in the brain.

[Chorus]

Now all night long

Skinhead drives through the station

Wondering who can I go and see

Can't afford to buy crack in chelsea

Or a bundle in roxbury.

[Chorus]

Skinhead's wife goes to the scollay square station

Everyday at quarter past two,

And through the open window

She hands skinhead a grenade

As the train comes a rumbling through.

[Chorus]

Now you citizens of boston

Don't you think it's a scandal

How the skinhead stole the train

What's the big fuckin' deal,

He'll work for beer

Let skinhead drive that fuckin' train.

[Chorus 2x]

He's the skinhead who never returned.

He's the skinhead who never returned.

I said the skin never returns.

[Chorus 2x]

He's the skinhead who never returned.

He's the skinhead who never returned.
