The Machinist of Joy

You are the machinist
And at your will
All the machinery
Is standing still
You walk and stand
Eight hours a day
Your strong arms
Push the metal easily

You are the machinist
And at your will
All the machinery
Is standing still
You are the machinist
And at your will
All the machinery
Is standing still

You are the machinist
The machinist of joy
You are the machinist
The machinist of joy
Du bist der Maschinist
Der Maschinist der Freude
Du bist der Maschinist
Der Maschinist der Freude

Body and mind
Are in strong condition
You lift your tools
In every position
Sufficient experience
And mechanical skills
No pain, no gain
To pay the bills

You are the machinist
And at your will
All the machinery
Is standing still
You are the machinist
And at your will
All the machinery
Is standing still

You are the machinist
The machinist of joy
You are the machinist
The machinist of joy
Du bist der Maschinist
Der Maschinist der Freude
Du bist der Maschinist
Der Maschinist der Freude
You are the machinist
The machinist of joy
You are the machinist
The machinist of joy
Du bist der Maschinist
Der Maschinist der Freude
Du bist der Maschinist
Der Maschinist der Freude
