Beaches movie - Oh Industry lyrics
rate meSong by Bette Midler<br /><br>
I am the captain and this is my shrine.<br>
Lord of the manor. See what I leave behind.<br>
River in flames, cities on fire.<br>
Yes, I'm a relic trapped in the wire.<br>
<br>
Hydrogen fuel, it burns so clean,<br>
throbs in the veins; a mother lovin' machine.<br>
She is my wife. Her mechanical heart<br>
constantly serving 'til death do us part.<br>
<br>
Now a glorious war draws to a close.<br>
The yellow winds blow. And I have to know.<br>
Oh industry, whatever will become of me?<br>
Soon the cruel rains will start.<br>
Is it true we must part company?<br>
Oh industry, whatever will become of me?<br>
What have I ever done?<br>
Where did I go wrong?<br>
<br>
Joined at the hip; pain, hunger and I,<br>
leave our gift to the world 'neath the phosphorous sky.<br>
A labor of love is the truest of all.<br>
But will I be forsaken after the fall?<br>
<br>
Now a glorious war draws to a close.<br>
The yellow winds blow. And I have to know.<br>
Oh industry, whatever will become of me?<br>
Nothing after the flood but the fire and the mud's prophecy.<br>
Oh industry, whatever will become of me?<br>
Of me?<br>
<br>
Industry, charity, faith, hope.<br>
Industry, charity, faith, hope.<br>
Industry, charity, faith, hope.<br>
Industry, charity, faith, hope.<br>
Industry, charity, faith, hope . . .<br>
