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
