All the Machines Are Quiet

We're walking out, we're downing our tools

This management, they sake us for fools

All we're asking is a living wage

A living wage, a living wage

And now there's nothing I can do

I spend my days in dreams

And join the endless queue

So far from the machines

All the machines are quiet

I could scream

All the machines are quiet

I'll take the kids to Chessington Zoo

The big gorilla, he looks just like you

Watch that tiger pacing in his cage

I feel his rage, I feel his rage

And now there's nothing I can do

I spend my days in dreams

And join the endless queue

So far from the machines

All the machines are quiet

I could scream

All the machines are quiet

The winter's coming, we need new shoes

I'm selling the car, I'm paying my dues

The union bosses tell us five more weeks

Five more weeks, five more weeks

And now there's nothing I can do

And I spend my days in dreams

And join the endless queue

So far from the machines

All the machines are quiet

I could scream

All the machines are quiet

Now there's nothing I can do

And I spend my days in dreams

And I join the endless queue

Oh, so far from the machines

All the machines are quiet, oh, they're so quiet

Now I scream

All the machines are quiet

Now there's nothing I can do

Spend my days in dreams

And join the endless queue

So far from the machines

All the machines are quiet

I could scream

All the machines are quiet

And now there's nothing I can do

And I spend my days in dreams

And I join the endless queue

Oh, so far from the machines

All the machines are quiet

I could scream

All the machines are quiet

Oh, now
