Metal Postcard |
Dedicated to john heartfield |
Reunion begins |
With a glass of mercury |
Whilst television flickers |
For (with) another news bulletin |
Flints light up the eyes |
Of the seated family |
Chorus: |
«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» |
Chorus |
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: — |
Chorus |
(metal is tough, metal is clean) |
