| Song | The Golden Age of Steam |
| Artist | Steve Hackett |
| Album | Darktown |
| 作词 : Hackett | |
| 12 years old in Amsterdam in 1939 | |
| A blue-eyed boy my clean complexion always got me by | |
| A boy with real potential sold secrets by the score | |
| Where refugees were hiding I'd just point out the doors | |
| In the golden age of steam I learned those German songs | |
| I had to stay alive there was no right or wrong | |
| In the golden age of steam | |
| The fatherland was rising the world would hear the roar | |
| Both sides fed and trusted me by 1944 | |
| Trains ran on time those days oiling the machine | |
| Smoke rose up like serpents I was barely seventeen | |
| In the golden age of steam | |
| It's over now but not somehow | |
| I was a hero then to many men | |
| Switzerland was a short ride for an eager blond haired boy | |
| With a silver smile and loaded with jewellery to enjoy | |
| Maybe one day they'll come for me they'll take me from my bed | |
| A soldier of fortune that's what my passport read | |
