Lyrics
Machine
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.
Look up here, look down there I am the new man
I'm tangled in wires, chipset adept memory load
Keep your vogue code that all have
Tomorrow's world we've all seen
Keep your modern ways and keep your bugs
The Metal Man is here to stay
(Talk talk) You say I only work, all night and day
(Talk talk) Do say 'use me, I'm cheap to rent'
(Talk talk) You say I only work, all night and day
(Talk talk) Do say 'use me, I'm cheap to rent'
Computerised, voice synthesised, call me the mech man
In a world of machines, what can I do but to serve?
Store the data and calculate
Speak and spell and operate
Engineer the rail and motorway
Automaton of yesterday
(Talk talk) You say I only work, all night and day
(Talk talk) Do say 'use me, I'm cheap to rent'
(Talk talk) You say I only work, all night and day
(Talk talk) Do say 'use me, I'm cheap to rent'
(Talk talk) You say I only work, all night and day
(Talk talk) Do say 'use me, I'm cheap to rent'
(Talk talk) You say I only work, all night and day
(Talk talk) Do say 'use me, I'm cheap to rent'
