The Man Amplifier - Young Marble Giants

The Man Amplifier

Has everything but desire

Is a robot when he should

Never tires, ever good

And we’re singing

Parallel sympathy with you

Skin to metal overture

Take a walk, he’s always near

Like a shadow, never fear

While we’re singing

Like a tower in the dark

He can leave you feeling stark

While his fingers fall away

Love is climbing in his heart

So we’re singing

Take a towel to his brow

Soothe the features of the proud

Lubricate the inner man

Exercise him when you can

And be singing
