Lyrics

Bertie (spoken): Thomas?
Percy (spoken): Thomas? Has anyone seen Thomas?
Toby (spoken): Thomas? (Thomas? Thomas?)
Gordon: He could have bashed into some buffers
Diesel: Or dropped down into a mine
Percy: Or rolled into the ocean 'cause he passed a danger sign
Rosie: He could be stuck inside a tunnel with no steam to move at all
Edward: Or crashed into a stationmaster's house
Knapford Stationmaster: Right through a wall
Toby: He could've strayed into a woodland on a track that's overgrown
Paxton: Or found a secret tunnel to some island that's unknown
Sidney (spoken): That doesn't make any sense! How could there be an island around here that's unknown?
Paxton (spoken): What if it was always covered in mist?
Sidney (spoken): That sounds very mist-erious!
Marion: He could be caught up in a landslide
Bill: Or have fallen off a bridge
Ben: Or tried to climb a mountain
Timothy: And be stuck up on a ridge!
James: He could've been derailed when he was trying to win a race
Imprisoned in a Steelworks!
Percy: Or be lost in outer space!
The Fat Controller (spoken): Fat Controller to major Thomas... come in major Thomas
Stop messing around, you're causing confusion and delay!
James: He could've gone up to some other place that we don't even know!
Henry: He could be almost anywhere!
The Fat Controller Oh, where did Thomas go?
Percy (spoken): We don't know, sir!
The Fat Controller (spoken): Well, keep looking!
All: He could be anywhere, anywhere, anywhere (Where's Thomas?)
He could be anywhere, anywhere, anywhere (Where's Thomas?)
He could be anywhere, anywhere in the world
Emily (spoken): Sir, sir, sir! I found out what happened to Thomas!
The Fat Controller (spoken): Alright, Emily. Calm down, and tell me slowly.
Emily (spoken): Thomas went down to the Docks, sir. And... and Carly loaded him onto a ship!
The Fat Controller She did what? But... that means... he could be anywhere in the world!
He could be checking out the pyramids while floating down the Nile
Or in the outback of Australia with a crocodile
He could be in Paris, sitting by the Eiffel Tower
Or chilling in Antarctica...
Dowager Hatt: He wouldn't last an hour!
The Fat Controller He could be in the Himalayas taking in the mountain air
Or acting like a tourist in the heart of Time's Square!
Percy (spoken): Are there tracks there?
James (spoken): Of course! The subway goes right through it.
Percy (spoken): You mean he's gone underground?
Thomas (spoken): Hello! Hello?
The Fat Controller He could be in Rio de Janeiro as the carnival goes by
Or out on Easter Islands saying "hi" to a moai
Thomas (spoken): Hi!
Moai Head (spoken): Hi.
The Fat Controller He could be on an African safari racing a zebra
Or in Venice on a gondola!
Dowager Hatt (spoken): Don't be preposterous! He's a tank engine. He can't fit in a gondola!
The Fat Controller (spoken): Well he could if it was a rather large gondola
He could be wrestling a sumo in a match in Tokyo
He could be almost anywhere
Oh, where did Thomas go?
Henry (spoken): We still don't know, sir!
The Fat Controller (spoken): Well, we have to find him. He's my number one engine.
All: He could be anywhere, anywhere, anywhere (Where's Thomas?)
He could be anywhere, anywhere, anywhere (Where's Thomas?)
He could be anywhere, anywhere in the world
The Fat Controller Oh Thomas, where could you be?

Goofs

  • When Percy enters the yard at the beginning of the song, a loading bay can be seen beside him but in the next shot, it is gone.

  • Harold has his US voice in the UK version.
  • Ben's body has been raised noticeably higher compared to his chassis, probably to match in height with the truck's buffers.
  • Steam can be seen coming out from Diesel, despite him being a diesel engine.
