Robert Calvert - All the Machines Are Quiet

Текст песни

We’re walking out
We’re downing our tools
This management
They take us for fools
All we’re asking is
A living wage
A living wage
A living wage
And now
There’s nothing I can do
I spend my days in dreams
And join the endless queue
So far from the machines
All the machines are quiet
I could scream
All the machines are quiet
I’ll take the kids
To Chessington zoo
The big gorilla
He looks just like you
Watch that tiger
Pacing in his cage
I feel his rage
I feel his rage
And now
There’s nothing
I can do
I spend my days in dreams
And join the endless queue
So far from the machines
All the machines are quiet
I could scream
All the machines are quiet
The winter’s coming
We need new shoes
I’m selling the car
I’m paying my dues
The union bosses
Tell us five more weeks — five more weeks —
Five more weeks
And now
There’s nothing
I can do
I spend my days in dreams
And join the endless queue
So far from the machines
All the machines are quiet
I could scream
All the machines are quiet
