Sultry Brass Fugue
Master... Where are you going?
I'm going to fix something.
What? I don't know yet.
But I'll know when I see it.
I walked into the room The lights were low A little red
signal Was putting on a show I checked the table
I checked the floor I opened one little panel Then I opened
four
The music started playing From somewhere in the wall Nobody touched the
radio Nobody touched it at all I said,
"Don't worry" I know this sound
Something very interesting Is going down
You always say that Before something breaks You touch one little wire
And everybody waits Step to the left
Step to the right
Something is moving In the middle of the night
Hey, Master! What did you do?
The lights are dancing And the speakers are too
Hey, Master! Look at that wire!
You touched one little switch And started a fire
I found an old machine Behind the wall
Covered in dust But still standing tall
There was a little button
With a little green light
I pressed it once And everything came alive The radio started talking
The ceiling started shaking The old electric motor Started slowly waking
I said, "Perfect" Now I know the way The female voice laughed
And said, "Not today." You don't know the way You never know
the way You just keep pushing buttons And hoping they obey
One little click
One little spark
Now something strange Is moving in the dark
Hey, Master!
What did you do?
The lights are dancing And the speakers are too Hey,
Master!
Look at that wire!
You touched one little switch And started a fire
You think you're clever...
You think you know...
You think that little machine Will do what you say...
Of course it will.
Are you sure? Absolutely.
Then press the button.
Which one?
Click... Click... Click... The bass starts walking.
The drums start talking.
The accordion laughs. The guitar answers back.
Click! The lights go red.
Click! The whole room shakes.
Click! Master smiles.
I think I've found it.
Found what?
The problem. What problem?
That... I don't know yet.
Hey, Master!
What did you do?
The whole room's moving And the ceiling is too Hey,
Master!
Look at that wire!
You touched one little switch And started the fire Hey,
Master!
Don't touch that thing!
Too late! Hey, hey,
hey! The lights go crazy The machines come alive
Nobody knows How we're getting out tonight
Is everything working? Yes.
Everything? Absolutely. Then why is the light flashing?
... That's a good question.
Master...
