Well some jump high, some jump off again.
And the
razz-ma-tazz is rolling, women folk are unveiled.
All truths to light all cross his
name.
Even high where the eagle circles,
Where he keeps his tail feathers
clean,
And wonders "Am I still a free bird,
Or just a part of the
machine?"
They hitch the cargo baggage and they roll out west,
All the picks in the
pockets of their Sunday best.
Shaking hands, kissing babies for all that they're
worth.
Oh, they promise you gold, promise heaven on Earth.
Still that old bald eagle
circles,
It's not the first time that he's seen
His reflection in the eyes of
innocence.
He's become just another part of the machine.
I wish I had an eagle like
you
To wake up to.
You could be my wings to fly in a big bird sky
Up above the whole
machine.
Part of the machine.
Part of the machine.
Smart guys out running
the whole man tribe
Up in the mountains where the eagle flies.
Wouldn't take that job
offered on a plate.
You gotta fly with the eagle but he won't wait.
Looking down on
the smoke, on the factories,
Until the truth creeps up unseen.
They see themselves in the
faces of their children
and realize they too are part of the machine.
Part of the
machine.
I wish I had an eagle like you to wake up to.
You could be my wings to fly
in a big bird sky.
Hey let's be part of the machine.
Part of the machine.
Part of the
machine.
Part of the machine.
And I want to be part of your machine.
Well I want to
be part of your machine.
Part of your machine.
Part of your machine | | | | Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link | |
