| Come with me I’ll show you how to be a metal man
|
| When the gears are turning and the fires are burning
|
| When the world ticks around you,
|
| voices talking all the time
|
| And you live for sleep you’ve never slept
|
| because you cannot sleep
|
| Colonel Walter was shocked
|
| when he learned from the Nile
|
| Copper African elephants turning hostile
|
| So he built these wonderful automaton bloaks
|
| And a very big steam powered giraffe what smokes
|
| Now the war is passed and over
|
| We’re left to sit and wonder
|
| What is life and what is real?
|
| And why do living things need feeling?
|

| How’d you like to try pumping
|
| lead through your veins
|
| Or have a heart so wet and cold it starts rusting
|
| When the world ticks around you,
|
| voices talking all the time
|
| You live for feelings you’ve never felt
|
| because you cannot feel
|
| And what is this leaking affecting my eye?
|
| Does the oil that is dripping mean this is a cry?
|
| Will I ever be something with feelings to hide?
|
| Or am I just a boiler with nothing inside?
|
| I want all today
|
| Don’t want to hear you say
|
| You can’t do this, you can’t do that
|
| You’re not a living thing with feeling
|
| (One, two, three)
