Iron Grid Songtext
von Retrograth

Fried fish at the docks at Istanbul Sirkeci
A glass of red at Gare de L′est
Munich, Vienna, Budapest
The orient express

A pelmeni plate in Volgograd
Too many beers at Kafe Dva
From Novosibirsk to Brest
Trans Siberian express

To the centre of the town
Where the roads are straight
The iron grid
The Inter City service
To the rural fields
The Iron grid


An espresso at the Roma termini
A stop over in Triest
Dragging iron ore from Kiruna
All connected by the grid

To the centre of the town
Where the roads are straight
The iron grid
The Inter City service
To the rural fields
The iron grid

Through the workshops
Storages and factories
The iron grid
It has us all connected
With two iron bars
The iron grid
