Saviour Machine

President Joe once had a dreamThe world held his hand, gave their pledgeSo he told them his scheme for a Saviour MachineThey called it the Prayer, its answer was lawIts logic stopped war, gave them foodHow they adored till it cried in its boredom'Please don't believe in me, please disagree with meLife is too easy, a plague seems quite feasible nowor maybe a war, or I may kill you allDon't let me stay, don't let me stayMy logic says burn so send me awayYour minds are too green, I despise all I've seenYou can't stake your lives on a Saviour MachineI need you flying, and I'll show that dyingIs living beyond reason, sacred dimension of timeI perceive every sign, I can steal every mindDon't let me stay, don't let me stayMy logic says burn so send me awayYour minds are too green, I despise all I've seenYou can't stake your lives on a Saviour Machine
