Oh Mighty Engine Lyrics - Singles - Neil Halstead

Oh! Mighty Engine 

Neil Halstead 

Cindy writes a paragraph 

Says time is passing 

But the bubbles in her heart 

Are everlasting 

Yeah, she gave her life to art 

An who could blame her 

It's pretty major, fraught with danger 

And stuff like that 

Oh, mighty engine of good intention 

You're purring softly beside me 

Grinding gently inside me 

Tapping totally madly for you 

For you

Says the plot is getting strange 

Taken all new meaning 

And the hero's run away 

And no one stopped him 

But she can't control the page 

It's taken over 

There's people dying, colons crying 

And full stops finding fault 

Oh, what a dolt 

Mighty engine of good intention 

You're purring softly beside me 

Grinding gently inside me 

Tapping totally madly for you 

For you, for you, for you 

Cindy writes of kerosene 

And broken bottles 

Says the troubles were apart 

Of someone's childhood 

Photos 

But she can't get past the point 

Where someone's dying 

It's pretty minor, a pithy liner 

Should sort it out 

But he won't die, he just muckes about 

Oh, it's so hard 

Now we've broken out the gin 

It helps her thinking 

And given into sin 

We're breathing deeply 

But some thing's on her mind 

A chapter stirring 

Her mind is whirling 

And off she trots 

To tap her keys to the top 

Oh, she's off 

Mighty engine of good intention 

You're purring softly beside me 

Grinding gently inside me 

Tapping totally madly for you 

For you, for you, for you
