Outside the Trains Don't Run on Time Lyrics
He's become nostalgic
Wants to own tomorrow
Discipline - is his passion
Now - he says there's none
Outside the trains don't run on time
He believes it's no coincidence
He thinks sunblock will track him down
Home - it's no castle
He wants his wife to run - and fetch
Order - he's obsessed with order, order
Discipline - is his passion
Now - he says there's none
Order - his obsession
Order - his obsession
Now - he says there's none
Outside the trains don't run on time
He believes it's no coincidence
He thinks sunblock will track him down
Home - it's no castle
He wants his wife - to run - and fetch
Order
The trains don't run on time
Nostalgia
Discipline
Is his passion
Now - he says there’s none
Outside the trains don't run on time
Wants to own tomorrow
Discipline - is his passion
Now - he says there's none
He believes it's no coincidence
He thinks sunblock will track him down
Home - it's no castle
He wants his wife to run - and fetch
Order - he's obsessed with order, order
Now - he says there's none
Order - his obsession
Order - his obsession
Now - he says there's none
He believes it's no coincidence
He thinks sunblock will track him down
Home - it's no castle
He wants his wife - to run - and fetch
Order
The trains don't run on time
Discipline
Is his passion
Now - he says there’s none

Many thanks for the lyrics (somewhat more accurate than the original posting, methinks!). Where you have uncertainty, a post on Wikia LyricWiki suggests the line, "He thinks sunblock will track him down". See at http://lyrics.wikia.com/Gang_Of_Four:Outside_The_Trains_Don't_Run_On_Time

This is a song about Fascists. "Keeping up nostalgic/Discipline is his passion", "He's obsessed with order". Furthermore "When Mussolini was here, the trains used to run on time" is a phrase often used by people who are nostalgic for Fascism.
