Saviour Machine Lyrics - Man Who Sold The World - David Bowie

President Joe once had a dream 

The world held his hand, gave their pledge 

So he told them his scheme for a Saviour Machine 

They called it the Prayer, its answer was law 

Its logic stopped war, gave them food 

How they adored till it cried in its boredom 

Please don't believe in me, please disagree with me 

Life is too easy, a plague seems quite feasible now 

Or maybe a war, or I may kill you all 

Don't let me stay, don't let me stay 

My logic says burn so send me away 

Your minds are too green, I despise all I've seen 

You can't stake your lives on a Saviour Machine 

I need you flying, and I'll show that dying 

Is living beyond reason, sacred dimension of time 

I perceive every sign, I can steal every mind
