Apparatus For Removing Apparatus

Algorithms for the blind       [Apsley ]

Leave half the world unseen       [Roland ]

Yet for the craven, with their rind,       [Apsley ]

Whose contracts must remain unsigned       [Roland ]

They invest it with a joy most keen       [Apsley ]

For Plasticene       [Roland ]

Bent unto their puissant needs       [Apsley ]

Nor impetus, nor urge       [Roland ]

Can ever work to spill their seeds       [Apsley ]

Nor trade their maidenhood for beads       [Chevalier ]

We resist them at our darkest cost       [Apsley ]

And implicate the dreary purge       [Roland ]

Of empty and the lost       [Apsley ]

So, before their work is done       [Roland ]

They will gambol in the sun       [Chevalier ]
