A little toy instrument
It could sing you to sleep
From a distance, so we go ahead
Was nearly ready to begin
Can hit the switch
Then they told us, all they wanted
I'll bet my mum's gonna give me
Was a sound that could kill someone
Music made for pleasure
Was a sound that could kill someone
It could feel so bad
It's a mistake we've made
It was music we were making here until
From the painful cries of mothers
It could feel like falling in love
And the meters are over in the red
They told us, all they wanted
But that dream is your enemy
Our experiment in sound
It's a mistake in the making
We won't be there to be blamed
From a distance, so we go ahead
I just pray that someone there
To the terrifying scream
It's a mistake in the making
Was a sound that could kill someone
From a distance, so we go ahead
We recorded it and put it into our machine
But they told us, all they wanted
We won't be there to snitch
But it could feel so good
We only know in theory what we are doing
And the meters are over in the red
And the meters are over in the red
Music made to thrill
