《The Beast (Song of the Punch Press Operator)》歌词

[00:00:01] The Beast (Song of the Punch Press Operator) - The Brothers Four

[00:00:19] I got a job in a factory

[00:00:22] Feeding a beast that don't like me

[00:00:25] It don't give a darn about how I feel

[00:00:28] As long as I feed it its ration of steel

[00:00:32] And pity the man who knows the grief

[00:00:36] That comes with the bite of that monster's teeth

[00:00:39] Pity the man who knows the grief

[00:00:42] That comes with the bite of that monster's teeth

[00:00:49] Watch your mitts at the start of the stroke

[00:00:52] It's a re-peat killer and will go for broke

[00:00:55] It shoulda been melted 'bout twenty years back

[00:00:58] But it feeds the boss and he loves that snack

[00:01:02] Oh Beast spare my hands

[00:01:05] I'll use them to slay you if I get the chance

[00:01:08] Oh Beast spare my hands

[00:01:11] I'll use them to slay you if I get the chance

[00:01:17] There ain't no guards to slow up a man

[00:01:21] Keep your foot on the pedal and your eye on the ram

[00:01:24] If your hand should slip why the boss don't shout

[00:01:27] He just buys new fingers as he throws you out

[00:01:30] There's plenty of hands to feed the jaws

[00:01:34] The press don't stop when there ain't no cause

[00:01:37] There's plenty of hands to feed the jaws

[00:01:40] The press don't stop when there ain't no cause

[00:01:47] There ain't one man out on the press

[00:01:50] Who wouldn't quit if jobs weren't scarce

[00:01:53] But a man has to have his daily meal

[00:01:56] And that Beast's gotta have its cold rolled steel

[00:01:59] Deep inside remain the dreams

[00:02:03] That make us the masters of the machines

[00:02:06] While deep inside remain the dreams

[00:02:09] That make us the masters of the machines

[00:02:15] Well now I got a job in a factory

[00:02:19] Feeding a beast that don't like me

[00:02:22] It don't give a darn about how I feel

[00:02:26] As long as I feed it its ration of steel

[00:02:29] Long as I feed it its ration of steel
