You take a mortal man and put him in control Watch him become a god Watch people set a row A row A row Just like a pipeline A lot like rats through the streets Dance like marionettes, swaying to the symphony Of destruction Acting like a robot Its metal brain corrodes You try to take its pulse Before the head explodes Explodes Explodes Just like a pipeline A lot like rats through the streets Dance like marionettes, swaying to the symphony Just like a pipeline A lot like rats through the streets Dance like marionettes, swaying to the symphony Of destruction The earth starts to rumble World powers fall A warning for the heavens A peaceful man stands tall Just like a pipeline A lot like rats through the streets Dance like marionettes, swaying to the symphony Just like a pipeline A lot like rats through the streets Dance like marionettes, swaying to the symphony Swaying to the symphony Of destruction
