Am                                       F
President Joe once had a dream
                                 E
The world held his hand gave their pledge
                                Am                               Em
So he told them his scheme for a Saviour Machine
Am                                                            F
They called it The Prayer, its answer was law
                            E
Its logic stopped war, gave them food
                 Am                                    E
How they adored till it cried in its boredom

G                  F#m                 Am        Bb
Please don't believe in me please disagree with me
G              F#m       Am                           Bb          C
Life is too easy, a plague seems quite feasible now

My logic says burn so send me away
                                Bb                                    F
Your minds are too green, I despise all I've seen

You can't stake your lives on a Saviour Machine
