[Intro]

Listen to the people

Listen to the people


[Verse 1]

We will build something to keep us safe

Impartial to the thoughts and minds of men

Loving, perfect, In every way

Loving, perfect, to keep us safe


[Verse 2]

This will rid the world of all its sins

Code the fabric of life into it

Listen to the people

Listen to the people


[Chorus 1]

(Build a machine)

It’s a choice, it’s the time

Listen friend, jump aboard, get in line

(Build a machine)

This is it, end of sin

Flip a switch, turn it on, plug it in


[Verse 3]

Burn thе metal, twist and make it bend

Sеparate the conscience from the skin

People, circuits, start to mend

Ride this wire to the end

Listen to the people

Listen to the people


[Chorus 2]

(Build a machine)

It’s a choice, it’s the time

Listen friend, jump aboard, get in line

(Build a machine)

This is it, end of sin

Flip a switch, turn it on, plug it in

(Build a machine)

It’s a choice, it’s the time

Listen friend, jump aboard, get in line

(Build a machine)

This is it, end of sin

Flip a switch, turn it on, plug it in
