Metal Minds

Our minds are made of stainless steel

And not of living things

Metal minds will keep you warm tonight

Neatly packed in plastic boxes

Tied with imitation string

Metal minds will keep you warm tonight

Plug us in and switch us on

The living, thinking mind is gone away

Tonight

Metal minds will keep you warm tonight

Tonight

A surrogate humanity

To kill the pain of life

Metal minds will keep you warm tonight

We will be all mankind's friends

Your freedom is the only price

Metal minds will keep you warm tonight

Plug us in and switch us on

The thinking, living mind is gone away

Metal minds will keep you warm tonight

Metal minds will keep you warm tonight

Metal minds will keep you warm tonight

Tonight

People die and children cry

Give just a passing glance

Metal minds will keep you warm tonight

You should have tried to do much better

While we really had the chance

Metal minds will keep you warm tonight

Plug us in and switch us on

The thinking, living mind is gone away

Metal minds will keep you warm tonight

Metal minds will keep you warm tonight

Metal minds will keep you warm tonight

Plug us in and switch us on

The thinking, living mind is gone away

Metal minds will keep you warm tonight

Metal minds will keep you warm tonight

Metal minds will keep you warm tonight

Plug us in and switch us on

The thinking, living, breathing mind is gone

Metal minds will keep you warm tonight

Tonight
