Mechanical Wonder

The mechanical wonder is

It's just a noise in my room

And i'm chasing the wonder and

It's just a hole in my tune



And the radio plays but it

But it don't sing a song

And the mechanical thunder is

What is all going wrong



And i walk down the road and i

I awake in a tune

But the mechanical thunder is

It's just a noise in my room



And we rode it once

On a thundering night

So i'll walk with you

Where the locks take flight



Oh machines make our lives today

And i like them the best

But the mechanical thunder is

It's just a noise in my head



And the radio plays at me

But it don't sing a song

But the mechanical wonder is

How it's all going wrong



And they rode it once ("And we rode it once" on last chorus)

On a thundering night

So i'll walk with you

Where the locks take flight

And we'll keep on through

It's where the road don't roar

Where the farm once stood

Where the union crawls, big time



They're machines that i'm walking from

Though they play in the songs

And the dreams that you're holding on

Don't hold on for so long



So i'm hiding machines away

But i'll keep them for you

But the things that you wanna say

it's just a noise in my room



And i look at the picture now

And there's a weight on us all

But the mechanical wonder is

It's a cure one and all



Repeat full chorus with slight variation
