David Bowie - Saviour Machine lyrics

President Joe once had a dream

The world held his hand, gave their pledge

So he told them his scheme for a Saviour Machine

They called it the Prayer, its answer was law

Its logic stopped war, gave them food

How they adored till it cried in its boredom

`Please don`t believe in me, please disagree with me

Life is too easy, a plague seems quite feasible now

or maybe a war, or I may kill you all

Don`t let me stay, don`t let me stay

My logic says burn so send me away

Your minds are too green, I despise all I`ve seen

You can`t stake your lives on a Saviour Machine

I need you flying, and I`ll show that dying

Is living beyond reason, sacred dimension of time

I perceive every sign, I can steal every mind

Don`t let me stay, don`t let me stay

My logic says burn so send me away

Your minds are too green, I despise all I`ve seen

You can`t stake your lives on a Saviour Machine
