Meet me at the station underneath the clock
Carry an umbrella, no need to talk
The man in the homburg, hiding in the fog
Will be watching
Get yourself a ticket, go through the gate
At seven forty-five precisely, dont be late
If anybody follows dont hesitate
Keep on walking
And take the night train to Munich
Rumbling down the track
After half an hour in the restaurant car
Look for the conductor
And there will be a stain on his tunic
A paper underneath his arm
Then youd better pray that he doesnt look away
Or youll never, never, never come back.
When you get the paper take a look inside
On page twenty-seven theres a photo of a bride
Underneath the story of a man who died
In Morocco
Memorize the article word for word
The man in the homburg understands the code
Make sure the conversation isnt overheard
Theyre around you
And take the night train to Munich
Rumbling down the track
After half an hour in the restaurant car
Look for the conductor
And there will be a stain on his tunic
A paper underneath his arm
Then youd better pray that he doesnt look away
Or youll never, never, never come back.
I really wouldnt ask if there was anybody else
But I now youve got the knack of taking care of yourself
And they dont know your face so there wont be anyone
Looking for you
When you get to Munich well be waiting in the car
Dont look around, just walk straight out
If you dont show, Im sorry for the pain
I caused you
Upon the night train to Munich
Rumbling down the track
After half an hour in the restaurant car
Look for the conductor
And there will be a stain on his tunic
A paper underneath his arm
Then youd better pray that he doesnt look away
Or youll never, never, never come back
