Simple Minds - Factory lyrics

rate me

In passage of time

To a cigarette burn

In the book that I read

To the sentence I learn

Up and down

Going round

Going round 'till we drown again

I'm gonna set myself up

I'm gonna up to the top

Up to the top

To the top

I'm going down to the ground

Going round

Till we drown

Going round till we drown again

Factory

Imitation of life

Factory

We all go out to lunch

A certain raion we know

Has left us unaware

Someone else has taken leave

Someone who did care

Elevators just don't crash

The answer lies within

Elevators Elevators

Answer lies within

To the glittering prize

To the fool in the sky

I've got a jewel in my eye

I'm going up

Coming down

Going round

Till we drown

Going round till we drown again

To the centre of the man

Because he had a plan

He had a plan to escape

But now we've got it on tape

Going up

Coming down

Going around

Going round till we drown again

Factory

Imitation of life

Factory

We all go out to lunch

A certain raion we know

Has left us unaware

Someone else has taken leave

Someone who did care

Elevators just don't crash

The answer lies within

Elevators Elevators

Answer lies within

Factory

Going out to lunch

Factory
