Machines Rule the World

Bleep and ring are all I hear A machines demand to be attended by man No beast cares for you oh dishwasher Dolphins will not surf the net Monkeys don't swing to the music on that radio The only animal ruled by the machine Is the one who created the supposed need for one No moment goes by without that dreaded beast Always making sounds nothing else can make Yet man believes that he needs you oh thing without a heart Cars and computers everywhere you look Phones used to communicate everywhere I go The air bombarded by noise abound Yet all crave the silence of the forest The feeling of a warm hand and not a machines part
