Lyrics: World Machine
Album: World Machine
Artist: Level 42
 

Some folks try
To multiply
From sunrise to sunset
Leave behind
More of their kind
So no one will forget
But that ain’t where i’m coming from – today
Those easy girls don’t turn me on – anyway
I wanna know where my pride has gone
The party’s over
Caught in a dream
Inside this world machine

Teachers teach
And preachers preach
Of spiritual evolution
But this big i am
From uncle sham
Just adds to my confusion
I’ve seen his face, i’ve heard his song – before
But i don’t care what time he’s on – anymore
I must have been on the streets too long
The party’s over
Caught in a dream
Inside this world machine

I find myself outside your door
Trying to make it like before
But you don’t follow what i say
And i can tell by your smile
You’re no longer a child
That part of you was buried yesterday . . .
. . . who knows
Why they come and where they go
In this world machine?

It’s the chosen fools
Who make the rules
That don’t apply to me
With their fast-car games
And counter claims
Not my reality

And i don’t know if i belong – today
I don’t know why my friends have gone – away
I must have been on the streets too long
The party’s over
Caught in a dream
Inside this world machine

(don’t knock the system – we’ll knock some sense in you
Don’t beat the system – there’s nothing you can do)
