Welcome my son
Welcome to the machine Where have you been? It's alright we know where you've beenYou've been in the pipeline
Filling in time Provided with toys and scouting for boys You brought a guitar to punish your maAnd you didn't like school
And you know you're nobody's fool So welcome to the machineWelcome my son
Welcome to the machine What did you dream? It's alright we told you what to dreamYou dreamed of a big star
He played a mean guitar He always ate in the Steak Bar He loved to drive in his Jaguar So welcome to the machine
