First there was nothing
Second there was everything
Third was the sphere
Fourth came the wave
Here am I
Sixth will be a line
Lastly there will be nothing

"Us and Them

And after all, we're only ordinary men

Me, and you

God only knows it's not what we would choose to do

Forward he cried from the rear
and the front rank died
And the General sat, as the lines on the map
moved from side to side

Black and Blue

And who knows which is which and who is who

Up and Down

And in the end, it's only round and round and round

Haven't you heard it's a battle of words

"Ticking away the moments
That make up a dull day
Fritter and waste the hours
In an off-hand way

Kicking around on a piece of ground
In your hometown
Waiting for someone or something
To show you the way

Tired of lying in the sunshine
Staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long
And there is time to kill today

And then the one day you find
Ten years have got behind you

"I figured it out. Pink Floyd is the equivalent to getting a message on your brain." - from Dragan232

"Overhead the albatross hangs motionless upon the air
And deep beneath the rolling waves in labyrinths of coral caves
The echo of a distant tide
Comes willowing across the sand
And everything is green and submarine

And no one showed us to the land
And no one knows the wheres or whys
But something stirs and something tries
And starts to climb towards the light

Strangers passing in the street

It's here! Enjoy!

"The Lunatic... Is On The Grass
The Lunatic... Is On The Grass
Remembering Games... And Daisy Chains And Laughs
Got To Keep The Loonies On The Path

The Lunatic... Is In The Hall
The Lunatics... Are In My Hall
The Paper Holds Their Folded Faces To The Floor
And Every Day... The Paper Boy Brings More

And If The Dam Breaks Open Many Years To Soon
And If There Is No Room Upon The Hill

"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 brought 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?

"As you look around this room to tonight

Settle in your seat and dim the lights

Do you want my blood, do you want my tears

What do you want

What do you want from me

Should I sing until I can't sing any more

Play these strings until my fingers are raw

You're so hard to please

What do you want from me

Do you think I know something you don't know

What do you want from me

Indeed it is. After an extra week of delay, here it is, and I hope you'll find it worth the wait.

Happy New Year! For my first post of 2021, I've got something special: the music that inspired (or was referenced by) The Iron Horse: Everything's Better With Robots! Check below the break for over two hours of auditory, robot-friendly bliss!
