Official Lyric Video: One, two … Pink Floyd – The Machine Song (Demo #2 Revisited)

von Werner · Veröffentlicht 14. September 2025 · Aktualisiert 14. September 2025

Die unveröffentlichten Demoversionen The Machine Song (Roger’s Demo) und The Machine Song (Demo #2 Revisited) gibt es auf der WYWH50 Doppel-CD, Blu-Ray, 3-LP und Suppaduppa-Box.

Großartig, das wir 50 Jahre nach der Veröffentlichung des Albums jetzt den The Machine Song (Demo #2 Revisited) kennenlernen dürfen. Dieses Demo klingt einfach nur toll! Das Official-Lyric-Video, das in Stanley Kubrick’s 2001 Manier kreiert wurde, ist der Hammer. Ich bin auch gespannt auf The Machine Song (Roger’s Demo), die erste Demoversion des Songs, den Roger Waters der Band vorstellte.

The Machine Song (Demo #2 Revisited)	Welcome To The Machine
Welcome my son Welcome to the machine Where have you been? It’s alright we know where you’ve been You’ve been in the pipeline *Biding your time* *You’re finished with toys and scouting for Boys* You bought a guitar to punish your ma You didn’t like school And you know you’re nobody’s fool Welcome to the machine Welcome my son Welcome to the machine What did you dream? It’s alright we told you what to dream You dreamed of a big star He played a mean guitar He always ate in the steak bar He loved to drive his jaguar Welcome to the machine Welcome to the machine	Welcome my son Welcome to the machine Where have you been? It’s alright we know where you’ve been You’ve been in the pipeline Filling in time Provided with toys and scouting for boys You brought a guitar to punish your ma And you didn’t like school And you know you’re nobody’s fool So welcome to the machine Welcome my son Welcome to the machine What did you dream? It’s alright we told you what to dream You dreamed of a big star He played a mean guitar He always ate in the Steak Bar He loved to drive in his Jaguar So welcome to the machine

The Machine Song (Demo #2 Revisited)

Welcome To The Machine

Welcome my son
Welcome to the machine
Where have you been?
It’s alright we know where you’ve been
You’ve been in the pipeline
Biding your time
You’re finished with toys and scouting for Boys
You bought a guitar to punish your ma
You didn’t like school
And you know you’re nobody’s fool
Welcome to the machine
Welcome my son
Welcome to the machine
What did you dream?
It’s alright we told you what to dream
You dreamed of a big star
He played a mean guitar
He always ate in the steak bar
He loved to drive his jaguar
Welcome to the machine
Welcome to the machine

Welcome my son
Welcome to the machine
Where have you been?
It’s alright we know where you’ve been
You’ve been in the pipeline
Filling in time
Provided with toys and scouting for boys
You brought a guitar to punish your ma
And you didn’t like school
And you know you’re nobody’s fool
So welcome to the machine
Welcome my son
Welcome to the machine
What did you dream?
It’s alright we told you what to dream
You dreamed of a big star
He played a mean guitar
He always ate in the Steak Bar
He loved to drive in his Jaguar
So welcome to the machine
