lyrics

A machine designed for living is a wonder to behold
A desert dream ranch in every direction
Color coordinated, climate controlled
In the future we’ll learn to amalgamate
All our hopes (and dreams) into one
Set up shop, use a different name
Trade future worries for what others before us, have done

Every thing will glow from within
Everything will be spinning

Keep a copy, in case they start running out
We’ll need more than several, at least that’s what we’re told
Availability, but limited interest
If you don’t see it on the shelf, it must be sold

Every thing will glow from within
Everything will be spinning

A machine designed for living, a kind of habitat to behold
Suburban dream ranch in every direction
Color coordinated, climate controlled
In the future we’ll learn to amalgamate
All our hopes (and dreams) into one
Set up shop, under a different name
Trade future worries for what others, before us, have done
