Hulk/hulk

When you're tied to railroad tracks
The only way out is to undo one knot at a time 
When you hear the train's whistle
It's understandable to be in a bit of a hurry

But you've only got two hands
And if you try and untie too many knots too fast
Or burst your bonds like the Incredible Hulk
You'll likely find the whistle growing louder
And yourself no closer to rolling off

One knot at a time
Even when you're sure you're completely out of time
Even when the knots grow back
And cover you like vines

Even when you reach the last knot
And find steel jaws bolting you down
Underneath

Then it's one screw at a time
Until you find you've been
Rooted to the earth
By an incantation
All along

When you finally break the spell
Not only do you roll away
In the very nick of time

But when you stand up
You find yourself
Shrugging off the dirt at last

And melting the moving train
Into a hulk of smoldering steel
With the beams of light from your eyes
