Pink Floyd:Welcome To The Machine
From LyricWiki
| This song is performed by Pink Floyd and appears on the album Wish You Were Here (1975). |
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.
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
He played a mean guitar
He always ate in the Steak Bar
Loved to drive in his Jaguar
So 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.
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
He played a mean guitar
He always ate in the Steak Bar
Loved to drive in his Jaguar
So welcome to the machine.
