Joy Maker Machinery - Joy Maker Machinery lyrics

We will wake as light is draped Like ribbons on the trees With woven tongues and fingers spun Between these dusty knees The branches crack beneath my back We sigh like sleeping tigers The forest stirs and shrugs the birds From shoulders stooped in silence And they sing for joy We are engineers and we are architects Making better guesses and empty threats It was all for something, and there's nothing wrong We know what is coming and what is to be done Bones will arc and cradle sparks From circuits smudged in bliss The newborn blush that makes us drunk On every little kiss We are happy scientists Our theories long abandoned For kites of red and feather beds For moments without sadness We will jump for joy And I'm helpless darling 'Cause you turn me on
