Who Can Deny How Delicious It Tastes

Hey God, you'll know I'm closing in
When the mountains fell, when the steeples... they bend
(You'll know how they bend?)
Five times: the width, the glacials, the pace, [etc., etc...]
At least you know what I'd give (now) for just one taste
A little taste of it

(My mad machine)
We'll never speak of my father again
We'll never speak of these plans
Never slip what was said, what'd I say?
"You'll beg to colonize the caves"

One day with a whisk of my hand
With a cut of my chin
With a wink of my eye
The fax machines come alive, another quick reply
Don't die on us
Don't die on us

(My mad machine)
Sign the contracts, fill the formats
Check the font type, we're back to square one again
Back to the salt mines, back to the ant hills
Back to the steel mills and that's the best we've got
We're gonna settle this today

Never speak of my father again
We'll never speak of these plans
Never slip what was said, what'd I say?
"You'll beg to colonize the caves"

One day with a whisk of my hand
With a cut of my chin
With a wink of my eye
The fax machines come alive, another quick reply
We're gonna settle this today
We're gonna settle this today

(My mad machine)
My mad machine
Don't die on us
Don't die on us

Nature is not cruel in a human sense of being cruel on purpose. Uh, I think nature's doing what it's done for millions of years before there were people there, and now there's- there's people in these areas, and uh, that's just the way it works.​
