Lyrics:
My old man was a good old man
Skilled in the moulding trade
In the stinking heat of the iron foundry
My old man was made
Down on his knees in
The blood furnace alight: awaken foundry.
Birthing iron, flame consecration
Sanguine agony and foul blessings,
Effigious enterprise,
Strung
He worked his days in an iron foundry
Options vanish in a dirty old town
A month of labor to install the roll bar
He jacked her up and then he stripped
be whole again
Left my spine in the wedding chapel full of people
Feet turning into lead lost a leg at the iron foundry
Where they found me
be whole again
Left my spine in the wedding chapel full of people
Feet turning into lead lost a leg at the iron foundry
Where they found me
again
Left my spine in the wedding chapel
Full of people
Feet turning into lead
Lost a leg at the iron foundry
Where they found me dead
Drained my blood
has gone, I can hear the birds
In the iron foundry
I couldn't stand the heat With the clippers I played clumsy
Checking the pipes for faults
I'd create
stevedore, porter, workshop, factory, field, plant, sweatshop, mill, iron works, foundry, steel yard, quarry, mine, shipyard, kitchen, laundry, office,
Pig iron for the local foundries
In all the surrounding counties
Iron Works to Great Lakes Steel
Smokin' iron makin' deal
Drill that hole, tap that
I was a miner
I was a docker
I was a railway man
Between the wars
I raised a family
In times of austerity
With sweat at the foundry
Between
I was a miner
I was a docker
I was a railway man
Between the wars
I raised a family
In times of austerity
With sweat at the foundry
Between
The moon beat down
On a river of bone
Someone put the lights out
No one make a sound
You won't find a thing
Down in Oretown
Foundry spits fire and smoke
In the heart of Uzwil, where the iron giants rise
Stands a monument of might, beneath the open skies
A sentinel of steel, where the factory lines
The moon beat down
On a river of bone
Someone put the lights out
No one make a sound
You won't find a thing
Down in Oretown
Foundry spits fire
to work, no rest, no sleep
In the belly of the beast, the iron we keep
(Break free) From the chains, the climb is steep
But SeraphiX's voice, through
Paralyzed, thrown into a foundry
Pushed me in until I melted down
Poured into cold iron 'til I pressed out soundly
The poisoned rule: these heights
I was a miner, I was a docker
I was a train driver between the wars
I raised a family in time of austerity
With sweat at the foundry, between
the demands, the trials we must bear
Our training becomes a mountain, a colossal challenge we share
At the foundry where destruction and chaos reside
We fight
steel town
Where dreams like iron surged
And humble hearts were crowned
Threads of destiny woven in the steel
In the clang of hammers in the heat they
Marlene...
I left home, but home left me when the
Foundry went for sale
No coffee perks, no iron works
The West End's gone to hell
Marlene, if you could see
built of oil on iron canvas
Look at mirrors and see, and filter through the noise
Lord have mercy on me, I’m fucking overjoyed
Life in shadow and doubt,
guess I gotta wreck it
I’m Inspecting surroundings, shatter every boundary
If your looking for me you’ll find me in the foundry
I’m cast iron
If you
