World Machine — текст песни (Level 42)

Some folks try

To multiply

From sunrise to sunset

Leave behind

More of their kind

So no one will forget

But that aint where Im coming from - today

Those easy girls dont turn me on - anyway

I wanna know where my pride has gone

The partys over

Caught in a dream

Inside this world machine



Teachers teach

And preachers preach

Of spiritual evolution

But this big I am

From uncle sham

Just adds to my confusion

Ive seen his face, Ive heard his song - before

But I dont care what time hes on - anymore

I must have been on the streets too long

The partys over

Caught in a dream

Inside this world machine



I find myself outside your door

Trying to make it like before

But you dont follow what I say

And I can tell by your smile

Youre no longer a child

That part of you was buried yesterday . . .

. . . who knows

Why they come and where they go

In this world machine?





Its the chosen fools

Who make the rules

That dont apply to me

With their fast-car games

And counter claims

Not my reality



And I dont know if I belong - today

I dont know why my friends have gone - away

I must have been on the streets too long

The partys over

Caught in a dream

Inside this world machine



(dont knock the system - well knock some sense in you

Dont beat the system - theres nothing you can do)
