Can carry you across the plains
But take the I away from trains and you get trans-
A prefix that means “across” or “through”
An email carries your words way across town
Transmitting every single word that you wrote down
A piece of glass lets the sunlight shine right through
Because it is transparent, that’s something it can do
A motorcycle can take you across the land
Transporting you from Maine down to the Rio Grande
And if you ever take a trip across the sea
If the trip is transatlantic you might wind up in Paris
Trains
Can carry you across the plains
But take the I away from trains and you get trans-
A prefix that means “across” or “through”
