Strange Orchestras
Saw a face in a conical of lace, it was a strange orchestraÂÂ
Mannequin skin pounding on a bass-drum, strange orchestraÂÂ
Lilliputian, evil in the eyes of the man with the leaf harpÂÂ
He lusts for the urchin hiding under mountains of moleskinÂÂ
A big cat like t-tyrannosaurus going to LilliputÂÂ
The ensemble make a tiny rumble, the celloist solosÂÂ
The sky blackens and the bass string slackens and they stand statuesquelyÂÂ
Then they giggle and they wiggle through the door in the big dark oak treeÂÂ
We recommend: Notorious K.I.M.
I stay in my room,
All alone in the gloom,
What need I of light?
Machines they can see in the night,
And I feel no pain
Metal heart and a metal brain,
But something is wrong
'cause I still feel that signal coming in so
I stand at your door,
I guess I'll wait a moment more
Your hall light comes on
And now my turn to fire upon
But I wheel away
Defer my plight, for another day
To dream of your face
But a video scren takes its place
Hey, oh it's true
I'm a helpless automaton, Make an ultimatum to you
Hey, it's true
Machin'ry in my pocket, I'
