    Lyrics:
    Call it new technology
    And they use it to burn
    And they show no concern
    Work for their prosperity
    While the big wheels turn
    Now it's too late to learn
    Don't upset the teacher
    Though we know he lied to you
    Don't upset the preacher
    He's gonna close his eyes for you
    And it's a shame
    That you're so afraid
    Just a worker waiting
    In the pouring rain
    Putting back the pieces
    Of a broken dream
    Putting back the pieces
    Of a broken dream
    Father worked in industry
    Now the work has moved on
    And the factory's gone
    See them sell your history
    Where once you were strong
    And you used to belong
    There was once a future
    For a working man
    There was once a lifetime
    For a skillful hand yesterday
    And it's a shame
    That you're so afraid
    Just a worker waiting
    In the pouring rain
    Putting back the pieces
    Of a broken dream
    Putting back the pieces
    Of a broken dream
    There was once a future
    For a working man
    There was once a lifetime
    For a skillful hand yesterday
    And it's a shame
    That you're so afraid
    Just a worker waiting
    In the pouring rain
    Putting back the pieces
    Of a broken dream
    Putting back the pieces
    Of a broken dream
    Putting back the pieces
    Of a broken dream
    Of a broken, of a broken dream

    love this song, actually the whole album. Reminds me when I was a teenager listening through my headphones, and my mum yelling to me telling me i'm singing too loud lol

    What a song. musically and lyrically - awesome, never got the "little respect" they deserved but Erasure fans will always be Erasure fans.

    Look at all their hits, they were a great band and this was one of their best

    This was criminally left off their most recent Greatest Hits albums. Such a shame as it's their best song for me.

    Just today someone quoted this song. Seems the world hasn't gotten much better in 30+ years.

    Call it new technology.…sounds like Musk ragging on AI Tech while he counts the money he makes off AI self-driving car sales, and neurolink, and selling his shares in OpenAI shortly after GPT-2 came out. 🖖long live Erasure, Andy and Vince forever! ☮️🎶

  • @jorgeccaa

    The instrumental arrangement alone would be enough to make this track outstanding. All the multiple melodic lines blend so well together. But those lyrics and Andy’s delivery elevate the song to another level! One of my favourite Erasure songs.

    Brilliant song! Great singing by Andy Bell! The eighties were without doubt the best time for music. Love the clown!

    It's a masterpiece! Andy is very good singer and Vince Clark is a genius.They formed a brilliant duo together.

    Old Grimsby, Cleethorpes and even Gandeys Circus.. there is so many great childhood memories in this video for a Grimbarian like me 😍

    This song never gets old. The message in the lyrics still applies today and the actual song itself has not dated at all.
    It could be released as it is just now and it would be a massive hit.
    Awesome song.
