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? 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 Music & Lyrics by Roger Waters Published by Pink Floyd Music Publishers Ltd Released: September 13, 1975 Label: Harvest (UK), Columbia/CBS (US) Songwriter: Roger Waters Producer: Pink Floyd
