Mechanics

Will they still be watching us When we can no longer see the sky? Will they still be watching us When all the rivers are running dry? We've been observed for more than an age And they might see us as rats in a cage Or mechanics Who can't meet the deadline? Will they still be warning us That we're not superior as we stand? Will they still be warning us To never let things get out of hand? As we enter a nuclear decade Life is something we don't want to trade To mechanics Who can't meet the deadline? Will they still be calling us When we can no longer turn the tide? Will they still be calling us Whose we know as unidentified? Will we ever admit that there can Live a being much wiser than man? The mechanics Who can't meet the deadline?
