Metal Postcard (Mittageisen)

Reunion begins with a glass of mercury Television flickers With a another news bulletin Flints light up the eyes of the seated family Metal is tough, metal will sheen Metal won't rust when oiled and cleaned Metal is tough, metal will sheen Metal will rule in my master scheme Oh, with a clockwork jerk pluck cogs from fob watches For dinner on Friday Then recoiling say "Excuse me Must go recycle my precious machinery" Metal is tough, metal will sheen Metal won't rust when oiled and cleaned Metal is tough, metal will sheen Metal will rule in my master scheme It's ruling our lives, there is no hope Thought I'd drop a line, the weather here is fine But day and night it blares Commanding through loudspeakers Metal is tough, metal will sheen Metal won't rust when oiled and cleaned Metal is tough, metal will sheen Metal will rule in my master scheme, in my master scheme Metal is tough, metal is clean Metal, metal, come on metal Come on, come on metal Next time I'll serve metal
