I used to be an engineer But now I'm just an engine
Constantly turning Never returning To who I was
Never debating Endlessly waiting Without contemplating

I used to be an engineer But now I'm just an engine
They said machines would save us Instead they enslave us It couldn't be worse
We work without thinking To stop us from sinking And to pay for the drinking
