Chaos Factory 2.0

Chaos Factory 2.0 (from the album Chaos Rise Up)

Oh, what the hell is goin’ on, the flesh has turned to stone
Now the city starts to burn, and they’re wreckin’ it, wreckin’ it
Oh, what are we supposed to do, as they tighten every screw,
Hammer every nail, now they’re wreckin’ it, wreckin’ it

While the carburetor smiles, it turns inches into miles
Now we’re on the road to the Chaos Factory

Now, the blueprints have been drawn, the old ways are now gone
No sense in making repairs, now they’re wreckin’ it, wreckin’ it
Where’s the voice of all the men, protesting to the end
Everyone’s replaced now they’re wreckin’ it, wreckin’ it
The robots have been built, upgraded without guilt
No humanity remains… in the Chaos Factory

Rusty wrenches, dirty gears, collected through the years
Acid starts to churn now they’re wreckin’ it, wreckin’ it
Now they’ve got us by the tail, if the infrastructure fails
Corroding our control… cause they’re wreckin it, wreckin it
They’re tightening the bolts, electricity jolts
To spin the belts and wheels… in the Chaos Factory

We live just to feed the machine, keep the motor running clean
Against the A-frame barricade now they’re wreckin it, wreckin it.
Punch a clock for all the hours, while the rich men live in towers.
We can’t drink gasoline, and they’re wreckin it, wreckin it
Ore smelting over fires, great deals made under spires
Now we breathe acetylene in the Chaos Factory

Rusty wrenches, dirty gears
Oh, what the hell is goin’ on, the flesh has turned to stone
Now the city starts to burn, and they’re wreckin’ it, wreckin’ it
