God And Machines
Exploring Heavenly Machinery: Unveiling The Legendary Pink Dots' Vision
Lyrics
Let me show you around
Inviting to explore the surroundings
There's so much here to see
Highlighting the abundance of things to observe
Heaven is no Earthly place
Heaven is not a physical place on Earth
Still needs it's machines
Even heaven requires its machines
We call this one the Spirit Clock
Introducing the "Spirit Clock"
It measures Valued Moments
It measures significant moments
Lights flash when you've had too much
Flashing lights indicate excessive moments
And everybody wants too much
Commenting on society's tendency to desire excessively
This one's for our daily bread
Referring to a device for daily sustenance
On silver trays right to your bed
Food served on silver trays directly to your bed
Lights flash when you're overfed
Warning lights for overindulgence
But everybody's overfed
Observation that everyone tends to overindulge
No idea what this one does
Uncertainty about the function of a mysterious device
Needles flicker I hear a buzz
Noting sounds and flickering related to the unknown device
But underneathrust
Despite rust, the device seems to function
God is in his Heaven
Acknowledging God's presence in Heaven
All's right in his domain
Expressing a sense of order in God's domain
Perhaps he feels discarded
Suggesting God may feel neglected or unwanted
Ah, but still he looks the same
Despite feelings, God appears unchanged
He taps an ancient keyboard
Depicting God's interaction through an ancient keyboard
And sends the summer rain
God's action of initiating summer rain
Did you say a touch too much?
Questioning if there was an excessive mention or request
Comment
