Kate Campbell - 1000 POUND MACHINE lyrics

rate me

The pressing of the key

Rocks the center rail

Pushes down the jack

Which makes the hammer fall

Until it strikes the string

And sends out good vibrations

Across the cast-iron plate

The soundboard starts to ring

Then when the key’s released

The backcheck drops the catch

And the hammer falls back down

Until it’s struck again

And this is how it works

A simple pair of hands

Still a mystery

The music of the spheres

A thousand pound machine
