Mr. Strange Metropolis 2984
Skyscrapers reach up to touch God,
Monolithic machines scream steam,
Plug in to group consciousness,
Switched off, they detest the flesh,
Loudspeakers scream, Aaahhhhh!
Loudspeakers scream, Aaahhhhh!
Metropolis!
Metropolis!
Metropolis!
Metropolis!
Mechanical master-schemes,
Erase the seeds of countless dreams,
Metal arms reach up like cranes,
All kneel before mother brain,
The abyss, of screams and steam,,
The monolith, the all-seeing machine,
With a flicker of life, resentment creeps,
But eyes glaze as rhetoric repeats,
Loudspeakers scream, Aaahhhhh!
Loudspeakers scream, Aaahhhhh!
Metropolis!
Metropolis!
Metropolis!
Metropolis!
All dreams forbidden,
All minds are written,
Coded by machines,
Perfect harmony,
Work, earn, buy,
Work, earn, buy, die,
This is the city of endless night,
No emotion in sight,
This is the city of endless night,
This is the tomb of a billion lights,
The machine, it reigns,
Mother brain,
