Part Of The Machine
Lyricist:Anderson Ian
Everybody's jumpin' on the circus train Well, some jump high, some jump off again And the razzmatazz is rolling, women folk unveiled All truths to light, all crosses nailed
Aiming high where the eagle circles Where he keeps his tail feathers clean And wonders, am I still a free bird Or just a part of the machine
They hitch their covered wagons and they roll out west Politics in the pockets of their Sunday best Shakin' hands, kissin' babies for all that they're worth Oh, they promise you gold, promise heaven on earth
Still, that old bald eagle circle It's not the first time that he's seen His reflection in the eyes of innocence He's become just another part of the machine Part of the machine
I wish I had an eagle like you to look up to Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com He could be my wings to fly in a big bird sky Up above the whole machine
Smart guys aren't runnin', they're home and dry Up in the mountains where the eagle flies They wouldn't take that job offered on a plate They got to fly with the eagle and he won't wait
Lookin' down on the smoke and the factories Till the truth creeps up unseen They see themselves in the faces of their children And realize they too are part of the machine Part of the machine
I wish I had an eagle like you to wake up to He could be my wings to fly in a big bird sky Hey, let's be part of the machine, part of the machine
Part of the machine, part of the machine I wanna be part of your machine I wanna be part of your machine Part of your machine, part of your machine
