Metal Postcard (Mittageisen)
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Reunion begins
With a glass of mercury
Whilst television flickers
For (with) another news bulletin
Flints light up the eyes
Of the seated family
Metal is tough, metal will sheen
Metal won't rust when oiled and cleaned
Metal is tough, metal will sheen
Metal will rule in my masterscheme
With a clockwork jerk
Pluck cogs from fob watches
For dinner on friday
Then recoiling say excuse me
Must go recycle
My precious machinery
It's ruling our lives
There is no hope
Thought I'd drop a line
The weather here is fine
But day and night it blares
Commanding through loudspeakers
