God And Machines - The Legendary Pink Dots, Edward Ka-Spel

Let me show you around

There’s so much here to see

Heaven is no Earthly place

— still needs it’s machines

We call this one the Spirit Clock

It measures Valued Moments

Lights flash when you’ve had too much

And everybody wants too much…

This one’s for our daily bread

On silver trays right to your bed

Lights flash when you’re overfed

But everybody’s overfed…

No idea what this one does

Needles flicker I hear a buzz

But underneath… rust

God is in his Heaven

All’s right in his domain

Perhaps he feels discarded

Ah, but still he looks the same

He taps an ancient keyboard

And sends the summer rain…

…did you say a touch too much?
