[Halford/Downing/Tipton]



We'd taken too much for granted

And all the time it had grown

From techno seeds we'd first planted

Evolved a mind of its own



Walking in the street dragging iron feet

Laser beaming hearts

Ripping men apart



From what had been our perfection

Where we could do as we please

In secrecy this infection

Was spreading like a disease



Hiding underground

Knowing we'd be found

Fearing for our lives

Reaped by robot scythes



Metal gods metal gods



Machines are taking all over

With mankind in their command

In time they'd learn to discover

How they could make their demands



Better be the slaves

To their wicked ways

Than meeting with our death

Engulfed in molten breath
