[ti:the factory gates]
[00:36.100] So this is the age of the train
[00:38.860] All aboard for the labour exchange
[00:42.100] My mind is running away with me
[00:45.100] I'm a shop worn sales campaign
[00:48.050] Trapped behind yellow cellophane
[00:51.170] My mind is running away with...
[00:54.550] Everything I ever learned
[00:57.330] Comes knocking at my head
[00:59.990] What you thought was way too much is not enough
[01:06.200] They tell you day after day
[01:09.140] To make your way through the factory gates
[01:12.230] What you make on the factory floor
[01:15.030] You take straight to the company store
[01:18.000] They tell you day after day
[01:20.980] To make your way through the factory gates
[01:24.120] 'Til they can't break your will anymore
[01:26.860] You are contractually tied to death's door
[01:36.640] I never left the town I was made in
[01:39.780] Wicker's World, I'm Michael Palin
[01:42.920] My mind is running away with me
[01:45.910] I record every one of my failings
[01:48.730] By tying bread bags onto the railings
[01:51.810] My mind is running away with...
[01:55.180] Everyone you ever loved
[01:57.820] Comes knocking down your door
[02:00.180] What you thought was way too much is not enough
[02:06.360] They tell you day after day
[02:09.390] To make your way through the factory gates
[02:12.420] What you make on the factory floor
[02:15.290] You take straight to the company store
[02:18.290] They tell you day after day
[02:21.230] To make your way through the factory gates
[02:24.310] 'Til they can't break your will anymore
[02:27.080] You are contractually tied to death's door
[02:30.250] Not enough, not enough
[02:33.100] I want wider than this island
[02:36.100] Not enough, not enough
[02:39.120] I want brighter than a diamond
[02:42.670] Everything you've ever known
[02:45.460] Is in these city walls
[02:48.700] What you thought was way too much is not enough
[02:52.570] It's not enough
[02:54.160] And when you thought it's way too much
[02:56.970] It's not enough
[03:00.960] They tell you day after day
[03:03.500] To make your way through the factory gates
[03:06.450] What you make on the factory floor
[03:09.540] You take straight to the company store
[03:12.400] They tell you day after day
[03:15.230] To make your way through the factory gates
[03:18.230] 'Til they can't break your will anymore
[03:21.200] You are contractually tied to death's door
[03:24.250] 'Til they can't break your will anymore
[03:27.140] You are contractually tied to death's door
