Bette Midler — Oh Industry

[Verse 1] I am the captain and this is my shrine Lord of the manor, see what I leave behind River in flames, cities on fire Yes, I'm a relic trapped in the wire Hydrogen fuel, it burns so clean Throbs in the veins of my loving machine She is my wife, her mechanical heart Constantly serving 'til death do us part Now our glorious war draws to a close The yellow winds blow and I have to know [Chorus] Oh industry, whatever will become of me? Soon the cruel rains will start Is it true we must part company? Oh industry, whatever will become of me? What have I become? Where did I go wrong? [Verse 2] Joined at the hip, pain, hunger and I Leave our gift to the world 'neath the phosphorous sky A labor of love is the truest of all But will I be forsaken after the fall? Now our glorious war draws to a close The yellow winds blow and I have to know [Chorus] Oh industry, whatever will become of me? Nothing after the flood but the fire and the mud's prophecy Oh industry, whatever will become of me? Of me? [Vamp] Industry, charity, faith, hope Industry, charity, faith, hope Industry, charity, faith, hope Industry, charity, faith, hope Industry, charity, faith, hope
