The Tower That Ate PeopleThere's a bump in the basementThere's a knocking on the wall In the pumping of the pistons I swear I heard you call There's a bump in the basement There's a hole in the floor There's a guard in the garden Locking up the door There's a rumble in the floorboards No shutting out the sound And the workers down below me Digging underground Feel the building all around me Like a wrap of armoured skin But the more we are protected The more we're trapped within We're building up and up. We're building up and up. We're building up and up. We're building up and up.till we can touch the sky. Tell it like it is Till there's no misunderstanding When you strip it right back Man feed machine Machine feed man Tell it like it is (And on this land, we cast our fortune) |
