For every child there dawns the day, They wonder from where they come Why is the sky so pink tonight? How fast do clouds fly by?
And so you come up with stories you tell, Eyes are open wide When you tell them about the sky And all that beneath resides
There is a factory clouds are made in They make 'em big and blue The factory eats you, it swallows you whole It fills you with conceit and never lets you leave If you ever dream at the end of the day That you´re gonna live as a free man There's no hook, no sinker, no line And you will never leave the cloud factory
If you join the same brigade I did when I was young You will never see beyond the skyline of this town
Take my word, my son and run While your dreams fly free Have them write my story down Like silence breaking sound
There is a factory clouds are made in They make 'em big and blue The factory eats you, it swallows you whole It fills you with conceit and never lets you leave If you ever dream at the end of the day That you´re gonna live as a free man There's no hook, no sinker, no line And you will never leave the cloud factory
[solo]
Some of you never leave You believe what you see And you follow the lead But the eyes they deceive There is nothing to see But cloud factory dreams
But hey, isn't it fun at the end of the day When everyone looks like me Swallowing pints of stale ampathy Having dreams where I would be without the factory
If you ever dream, at the end of the day That you´re gonna live as a free man There's no hook, no sinker, no line And you will never leave the cloud factory
There is a factory clouds are made in They make 'em big and blue The factory eats you, it swallows you whole It fills you with conceit and never lets you leave If you ever dream at the end of the day That you´re gonna live as a free man I will reach out the justices that you find In case you never leave the cloud factory
