Welcome my son, welcome to the machine
Where have you been? It's alright, we know where you've been You've been in the pipeline, filling in time Provided with toys and "Scouting For Boys" You bought a guitar to punish your ma, And you didn't like school, And you know you're nobody's fool, So welcome to the machine Welcome my son, welcome to the machine What did you dream? It's alright, we told you what to dream You dreamed of a big star, He played a mean guitar, He always ate in the Steak Bar He loved to drive in his Jaguar So welcome to the machine. |

After listening to Floyd more then a lot I can
conlcude this is by far my favorite Floyd song. I
love it, It holds the best vocals I ever heard in
a song, the middle part with the keyboardsolo is
amazing and all the special effect are great. The
lyrics are also a thing I've fallen in love with.
So great

Pretty boring stuff. As much as I try I can't get
my head around Pink Floyd and I generally admire
this era and its sound. I'm a huge fan of Genesis,
Yes, King Crimson, ELP but Pink Floyd is so boring
compared to those. The only album that has
qualities I can admire, is Ummagumma.

Best song off this album. Great use of
electronica. It's usually more electronica than
guitars (well, there's an acoustic guitar in some
parts of this song) in it. Still my fave off this
album nonetheless.

yeah, definitely not on anything, and it's
amazing... you have to love "the storytelling
quality" of pink floyd... their songs are like a
journey or something, and this one is definitely
not an exception
