Peter Gabriel

The Tower That Ate People
Brick by brick by brick by brick we're building Brick by brick by brick by brick we're building Brick by brick by brick by brick we're building Brick by brick by brick by brick we're building There's a bump in the basement There's a knocking on the wall In the pumping of the pistons I swear I heard your call There's a bump in the basement There's a hole in the floor There's a guard in the garden Locking up the door There's a rumble in the floorboards No shutting out the sound And the workers are below me digging underground Feel the building all around me Like a wrap of armoured skin But the more we are protected The more we're trapped within We're building up and up We're building up and up We're building up and up We're building up and up SongtexteTill we can touch the sky Tell it like it is Till there's no misunderstanding When you strip it right back Man feed machine Machine feed man Tell it like it is Till there's no misunderstanding Make up what you like Man fed machine Machine feed man Aus Songtexte Mania
