Sub-rosa Subway Lyrics - Singles - Klaatu

Back in 1870 just beneath the Great White Way 

Alfred Beach worked secretly 

Risking all to ride a dream 

His wind-machine 

His wind-machine 

 

New York City and the morning sun 

Were awoken by the strangest sound 

Reportedly as far as Washington 

The tremors shook the earth as Alfie 

Blew underground 

Blew underground 

He blew underground, yeah 

 

Ahh 

All aboard sub-rosa subway 

Had you wondered who's been digging under Broadway? 

It's Alfred 

It's Alfred 

It's Alfred 

Poor Al, woh no Al 

 

As for America's first subway 

The public scoffed, "It's far too rude" 

One station filled with Victoria's age 

From frescoed walls and goldfish fountains.... 

To Brahmsian tunes
