Daly City Train

He was an artist and a writer
 And a poet and a friend
 In a man's life he will take a fall
 But how low he goes, it just depends
 He's shooting dope in the mens' room
 At the station Daly City Train
 Have you ever seen an angel, well I know I have
 You see, they stay here for a while, then they fly away
 Jackyl had a beer in his hand last time I seen him
 When he rolled the dice, you know, he never thought twice
 ♪
 Never thought twice about being here
 Some grow up and some grow old
 But what about the kid who never learned the rules
 Spent all these years on this earth
 When you look back it's just a flicker of time
 Jackyl was one of the ones that perished
 Yeah, he was one of the ones that was already saved
 Through all this evil and wreckage, yeah
 He maintained a sense of himself
 Jackyl had a beer in his hand last time I seen him
 When he rolled the dice, you know, he never thought twice
 Never thought twice about being here

 Some men are in prison although they walk the streets at night
 Other men who got the lockdown are free as a bird in flight
 How about the hour in the system that ended
 In a one-way line, our measures could not stand it
 Jackyl had a beer in his hand last time I seen him
 When he rolled the dice, you know, he never thought twice
 Never thought twice about being here
