lyrics

Every night at 11 or so when everyone's safe at home
Those who dare to roam are greeted with something existential

And what a sight it is, when nothing is quite functioning
And all the bells they do ring for problems electrical

I am steel, steel wrapped in a pink trap, I'm here
For your pleasure
Don't wait for me to make my move
My move is pre-determined
But I feel like you want me to

The traffic lights all go out and then the city sleeps so sound
And then all the hounds come out and bay to the moon in response
In response to the glaring lack of man-made light

And from Hogan on to Hammond, no stop is safe from splendor
And everyone surrenders to the void

Wrap your arms around me and see if you can feel my insides
Guess my model number
But I love like the real thing

You are so simple
Such simple machines
