God Machine

album: Emilia
Written by: Emilia Dahlin

Trot trot to Boston
Trot trot to Lynn
You better watch out
Or you're going to fall in
And I swear you won't go out
How you came in. . .

Lynn, Lynn the city of Sin
Don't you fall down to your needs,
Be careful what you sew with your seeds.
Please let me entice you
To consider possibilities
That out-do even all your wildest dreams.

Zinc, iron, copper, wood,
and a plan devised of spirit stood
On a tabletop, waiting to be made.
All laid out with divine intervention,
a miracle, and did I mention that
with it, the whole world will be saved?

Oh, no, no ,no
Whoa, no, no, no,
Oh the God Machine.

It's easy to save your fellow man
with my very simple nine month plan.
Heaven's last and best gift to man's a machine.
From one-seven-zero feet above the ground,
from High Rock came a hopeful sound
of the psysical savior
dancin' around the floor.

And high up on a hillside it shutters and shakes
While the people down below still continue to quake
And Mary rakes her nails across the floor.
Lay your sweet,sweet, sweet hands
upon it.
The spirit moving through is going to
knock off your bonnet.
To make a messiah, girl,
you've got to writhe.

John Murry crowned the King of Heaven with a wagon wheel
and peels of laughter,
shouting for all the world to hear,
"He's come to save your mortal souls
the skeptics and the eyes that roll,
oh won't they be so surprised to
hear?". . .

Oh, no, no ,no
Whoa, no, no, no,
Oh the God Machine.
