Such a strange pre-occupation
Such a strange peculiar breed
How it's shining in its armour
Made of gold and made of steel
It can strike a chord inside you
Like a generation's need
Speaking happy words of promise
Big generator
Lives out of sight
Big generator
Hands upon the wheel
Moving to the left
Movin'
Moving to the right
Big generator
Moving through the night
Second nature sacrifice
Even if you close your eyes
We exist through this strange disguise

Even if you close your eyes

Moving to the right

Moving through the night
Movin'
Flying out the soft machine, we offer

Praise oh praise this anthem generator
Moving through the night
Movin'
We are the voice of every
