Translation
Bilingual
We got machines we invent and learn how to build
That can stir the cement for giant holes to be filled
With a balance of minerals, liquids and anthracite
Through trial and error at a particular Fahrenheit
So why can't there be some kind of mighty machine
To fight feelings they are just feelings
We got blueprints for rockets that defeat gravitation
With combustion hydraulics and discrete calculation
Of where the garment line snaps and the soundwave convulses
To blast through gaps in the armour of the magnetic pulses
Like a fist through a screen so where is this machine
To fight feelings they are just little feelings
In boxes and tubes we fight the cold and the heat
With square numbers and cubes to decisive defeat
Setting digital dials on fractions each can agree on
In hot orange spirals or in winter green freons
Spewing atoms or ice but where do they have this device
To fight feelings they are just stupid feelings
Just as the Grand Coulee Dam merely begun as a dream
One day a bike helmet cam grew from the era of steam
So maybe some magic time constructions we are not aware of
Will just pluck through your minds just one more task to take care of
Can something help fight against this old pathetic condition
Where I am somehow defenceless just against words or a vision
If they are so big and smart why can't they start making stuff
To fight feelings they are just little feelings
Now that there is lasers and beams let's build amazing machines
To fight feelings there is just a few feelings
A few lousy feelings
A few little feelings
A few stupid feelings
Why can't they fight feelings
