Saviour Machine (1999 Digital Remaster) - David Bowie
President Joe once had a dream
The world held his hand
Gave their pledge So he told them his scheme For a Saviour Machine
They called it the Prayer Its answer was law
Its logic stopped war Gave them food
How they adored till it cried In its boredom
Please don't believe in me
Please disagree with me Life is too easy A plague seems quite feasible now Or maybe a war Or I may kill you all
Don't let me stay Don't let me stay My logic says burn So send me away Your minds are too green I despise all I've seen You can't stake your lives On a Saviour Machine
I need you flying And I'll show that dying Is living beyond reason Sacred dimension of time I perceive every sign I can steal every mind
Don't let me stay Don't let me stay My logic says burn So send me away Your minds are too green I despise all I've seen You can't stake your lives On a Saviour Machine
