Lyrics

[Intro: Andy Bell] Technology, technology, technology, technology Technology, technology, technology, technology Technology, technology, technology, technology Technology, technology, technology, technology Technology, technology, technology, technology [Verse 1: Andy Bell] Call it new technology And they use it to burn And they show no concern Work for their prosperity While the big wheels turn Now it's too late to learn [Pre-Chorus 1: Andy Bell] Don't upset the teacher Though we know he lied to you Don't upset the preacher He's gonna close his eyes for you [Chorus: Andy Bell] And it's a shame That you're so afraid Just a worker waiting in the pouring rain Putting back the pieces of a broken dream Putting back the pieces of a broken dream [Interlude: Andy Bell] Technology, technology, technology, technology Technology, technology, technology, technology [Verse 2: Andy Bell] Father worked in industry Now the work has moved on And the factory's gone See them sell your history Where once you were strong And you used to belong [Pre-Chorus 2: Andy Bell] There was once a future For a working man There was once a lifetime For a skillful hand Yesterday [Chorus: Andy Bell] And it's a shame That you're so afraid Just a worker waiting in the pouring rain Putting back the pieces of a broken dream Putting back the pieces of a broken dream [Interlude] [Pre-Chorus 1: Andy Bell] Don't upset the teacher Though we know he lied to you Don't upset the preacher He's gonna close his eyes for you [Chorus: Andy Bell] And it's a shame That you're so afraid Just a worker waiting in the pouring rain Putting back the pieces of a broken dream [Verse 3: Andy Bell] Tempers fray so easily In desperate despair Is there anyone who cares? Just another tragedy Just a personal affair In a room somewhere [Pre-Chorus 2: Andy Bell] There was once a future For a working man There was once a lifetime For a skillful hand Yesterday [Chorus: Andy Bell] And it's a shame That you're so afraid Just a worker waiting in the pouring rain Putting back the pieces of a broken dream (Broken dream) Putting back the pieces of a broken dream (I'm broken, broken dream) Putting back the pieces of a broken dream (I'm broken, broken dream) Putting back the pieces of a broken dream (Putting back the pieces of a broken dream) [Coda: Andy Bell] Technology, technology, technology, technology Technology, technology, technology, technology Technology, technology, technology, technology [Outro: Andy Bell] Technology, technology, technology, technology, technology, technology, technology
