I Dream of Wires
(Gary Numan)
I am the final silence
The last electrician alive
And they called me the sparkle
I was the best I worked them all
New ways, new ways
I dream of wires
We opened doors by thinking
We went to sleep by dialling O
We drove to work by proxy
I bought my wife in just for show
New ways, new ways
I dream of wires
So I press C for comfort
I dream of wires, the old days
New ways, new ways
I dream of wires
I am the final silence
The last electrician alive
And they called me the sparkle
I was the best I worked them all
New ways, new ways
I dream of wires
