Welcome to the Machine
Welcome, my son
Welcome to the machine
Where have you been?
It's alright, we know where you've been
You've been in the pipeline filling in time
Provided with toys and Scouting for Boys
You bought a guitar to punish your ma
You didn't like school
And you know you're nobody's fool
So welcome
To the machine
(To the machine)
Welcome, my son
Welcome to the machine
What did you dream?
It's alright, we told you what to dream
You dreamed of a big star
You played a mean guitar
You always ate in the Steak Bar
You loved to drive his Jaguar
So welcome
To the machine
Welcome to the machine
Where have you been?
It's alright, we know where you've been
You've been in the pipeline filling in time
Provided with toys and Scouting for Boys
You bought a guitar to punish your ma
You didn't like school
And you know you're nobody's fool
So welcome
To the machine
(To the machine)
Welcome, my son
Welcome to the machine
What did you dream?
It's alright, we told you what to dream
You dreamed of a big star
You played a mean guitar
You always ate in the Steak Bar
You loved to drive his Jaguar
So welcome
To the machine
