We've taken care of everything the words you read, the songs you sing
The pictures that give pleasure to your eyes
It's one for all and all for one we work together, common sons
Never need to wonder how or why
We are the Priests of the Temples of Syrinx our great computers fill the hallowed halls
We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx all the gifts of life are held within our walls
Look around at this world we've made equality our stock in trade
Come and join the Brotherhood of Man what a nice, contented world
Let the banners be unfurled hold the Red Star proudly high in hand
We are the Priests of the Temples of Syrinx our great computers fill the hallowed halls
We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx all the gifts of life are held within our walls
What can this strange device be when I touch it, it gives forth a sound
It's got wires that vibrate and give music what can this thing be that I found?
See how it sings like a sad heart and joyously screams out its pain
Sounds that build high like a mountain or notes that fall gently like rain
I can't wait to share this new wonder the people will all see its light
Let them all make their own music The Priests praise my name on this night
I know it's most unusual to come before you so
But I've found an ancient miracle I thought that you should know
Listen to my music and hear what it can do
There's something here as strong as life I know that it will reach you
Yes, we know, it's nothing new it's just a waste of time
We have no need for ancient ways the world is doing fine
Another toy that helped destroy the elder race of man
Forget about your silly whim it doesn't fit the plan
I can't believe you're saying these things just can't be true
Our world could use this beauty just think what we might do
Listen to my music and hear what it can do
There's something here as strong as life I know that it will reach you
Don't annoy us further we have our work to do
Just think about the average what use have they for you?
Another toy that helped destroy the elder race of man
Forget about your silly whim it doesn't fit the plan
I wandered home through the silent streets and fell into a fitful sleep
Escape to realms beyond the night dream can't you show me the light?
I stand atop a spiral stair an oracle confronts me there
He leads me on light years away through astral nights, galactic days
I see the works of gifted hands that grace this strange and wondrous land
I see the hand of man arise with hungry mind and open eyes
They left our planets long ago the elder race still learn and grow
Their power grows with purpose strong to claim the home where they belong
Home to tear the Temples down home to change!
The sleep is still in my eyes the dream is still in my head
I heave a sigh and sadly smile and lie a while in bed
I wish that it might come to pass not fade like all my dreams...
Just think of what my life might be in a world like I have seen!
I don't think I can carry on carry on this cold and empty life
My spirits are low in the depths of despair my lifeblood spills over
