Brass Goggles

[Intro] Attune your ears to the grinding gears [Verse 1] Come with me, I'll show you how to be a metal man When the gears are turning and the fires are burning When the world ticks around you Voices tocking all the time And you live for sleep, you've never slept Because you cannot sleep Colonel Walter was shocked When he learned from the Nile Copper African elephants are turning hostile So he built these wonderful automaton blokes And a very big steam powered giraffe with smokes Now the war is passed and over We're left to sit and wonder What is life and what is real? And why do living things need feelings? [Pre-Chorus] One, two, three [Chorus] La-da-da-da-da La-da-da-da-da La-da-da-da-da La-da-da-da-da-da La-da-da-da-da La-da-da-da-da La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da [Verse 2] How'd you like to try pumping lead through your veins? Or have a heart so wet and cold it starts rusting? When the world ticks around you Voices tocking all the time You live for feelings you've never felt Because you cannot feel And what is this leaking affecting my eye? Does the oil that is dripping mean this is a cry? Will I ever be something with feelings to hide? Or am I just a boiler with nothing inside? I want all today Don't want to hear you say You can't do this, you can't do that You're not a living thing with feelings [Pre-Chorus] Here we go One, two, three [Chorus] La-da-da-da-da La-da-da-da-da La-da-da-da-da La-da-da-da-da-da La-da-da-da-da La-da-da-da-da La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da [Bridge] Wind me up, turn the gears (Brass goggles) Wind me up, turn the gears (Brass goggles) Wind me up, turn the gears (Brass goggles, goggles, goggles) Wind me up, turn the gears (Brass goggles) [Verse 3] Colonel Walter was shocked when he learned from the Nile (I want all today, brass goggles) Copper African elephants turning hostile (Don’t want to hear you say, brass goggles) So he built these wonderful automaton blokes (I love you, I love you, brass goggles, brass goggles) And a very big steam powered giraffe with smokes (I love-love-love you, brass goggles, goggles, goggles, gog-gog-gog-gog-gog-goggles) A very big steam powered giraffe with smokes (Wind me up, turn the gears, brass goggles, brass goggles) A very big steam powered giraffe with smokes (Wind me up, turn the gears) A very big steam powered giraffe with smokes (Wind me up, turn the gears, brass goggles) A very big steam powered giraffe with smokes (Wind me up, turn the gears) [Chorus] La-da-da-da-da La-da-da-da-da La-da-da-da-da La-da-da-da-da-da La-da-da-da-da La-da-da-da-da La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da [Outro] A very big steam powered giraffe with smokes (La-da-da-da-da, la-da-da-da-da) A very big steam powered giraffe with smokes (La-da-da-da-da, la-da-da-da-da-da) A very big steam powered giraffe with smokes (La-da-da-da-da, la-da-da-da-da) A very big steam powered giraffe with smokes (La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da)
