I feel a great weight
All off my shoulder
They'll take very good care of me
As I get older
And I've been asked to make a good investment
to secure myself for my retirement
And I feel really safe now, nothing could harm me
(Except redundancy)
I've been accepted
Into the Brotherhood
Of the Machinery
(It's good for you and me)
All I have to do is stay where I am
They'll work things out if I get in a jam
They said "don't worry - just give us a call"
Leave it to the boys behind the wall.
I don't go to their meetings
They don't concern me
I didn't learn much in school
There's not much you can teach me
I sat at the back of the class to merge with the scenery
And oh, I forgot to tell you
I'm into Obscurity.
And I've been asked to make a good investment
