Siouxie And The Banshees
Текст песни Metal Postcard (Mittageisen)

Reunion begins
with a glass of mercury
Television flickers
with another news bulletin
Flints light up the eyes
of the seated family

Chorus:
Metal is tough,
metal will sheen
Metal won't rust when oiled and cleaned

Metal is tough,
metal will sheen
Metal will rule in my masterscheme

With a clockwork jerk
pluck cogs from fob watches
For dinner on Friday
then recoiling say excuse me
Must go recycle
my precios machinery

Chorus:

Metal is tough,
metal will sheen
Metal won't rust when oiled and cleaned

Metal is tough,
metal will sheen
Metal will rule in my masterscheme

It's ruling our lives,
there is no hope
Thought I'd drop a line
the weather here is fine
But day and night it blares
commanding through loudspeakers

Chorus:
Metal is tough,
metal will sheen
Metal won't rust when oiled and cleaned

Metal is tough,
metal will sheen
Metal will rule in my masterscheme
