Down in the factory
By the light of a dream
I was practicing a joke
With my mannequin machine
The lights were burning low
And it was time to go
But you wore it oh so well I had to say
Hey! I like the way you move
Not too much to say
That I want something else
Take me far away
Let me satisfy
The longing in your heart
Though you have not eyes
You see me in the dark
This week marks seven years since men with tailored ties
Came a knocking on the door to come and cut me down to size
They talked of market shares and economic cuts
But they never mentioned sharing them with us
Now seven years is far too long to stay at home
I just kept on working it's the only thing I know
Alone in the odorless air never breaking my stare, I crafted art
Headwear that was screaming to be tried on from the start
Then, you caught my eye
I like the way you move
Not too much to say
That I want something else
Take me far away
Let me satisfy
The longing in your heart
Though you have not eyes
You see me in the dark
What kinda man does not bring money to the table
My marriage dined on silence and resentment on the label
Longer the time I stayed watching feelings all fade oh who would save me
My mannequin don't shout me from my bed and drive me crazy
Julie said she's leaving
Never gonna be one to stick around for it
Walked right out the door and said
Never took a glance back, offtrack, from her plan to slam my heart down in a deathtrap
Wait! I like the way you move
Not too much to say
That I want something else
Take me far away
Let me satisfy
The longing in your heart
Though you have not eyes
You see me in the dark
Remember
Isn't it a pity that something strange is happening
Woah
Isn't it a pity that something strange is happening
Woah
Isn't it a pity that something strange is happening
Woah
Isn't it a pity that something strange is happening
Woah yeah
I like the way you move
Not too much to say
That I want something else
Take me far away
Let me satisfy
The longing in your heart
Though you have not eyes
Oh you see me in the dark
I like the way you move
Not too much to say
I like the way you move
I like the way you move
Let me satisfy
The longing in your heart
Though you have not eyes
Oh you see me in the dark
