Machine Men (2001 Remastered Version) Lyrics

Bring the toys out for the boys
Let the children make their noise
See the monsters in their metal cagesTurn the lights down in your soul
Cut the power to your heart
See the carcass in its dying ragesMachine men, cannibals of rustMachine men, iron bites the dustMachine men, built with feet of clayAre coming to sweep you all away
What bitter vampire made you this?
Gave you life with its deathly kiss
Ground your limbs to bloody stew
Made a new machine of youTurned a nightmare into day
Sucks your breath, takes your life away
Beating harder through your veins
Someone else's cold remainsMachine men, cannibals of rustMachine men, iron bites the dustMachine men, built with feet of clay
Are coming to sweep you all away
They're coming to sweep you all awayMachine men, cannibals of rustMachine men, iron bites the dustMachine men, built with feet of clayAre coming to take you all awayMachine men, cannibals of rustMachine men, iron bites the dustMachine men, built with feet of clayAre coming to take you all awayThey're coming to sweep you all away
Iron, in the soul
