"Brass Goggles" Lyrics
Written by Isabella Bunny Bennett
Copyright 2008 Steam Powered Giraffe LLC.
(Attune your ears to the grinding gears)
Come with me I'll show you how to be a metal man
When the gears are turning and the fires are burning
When the world ticks around you,
voices tocking all the time
And you live for sleep you've never slept
because you cannot sleep
Colonel Walter was shocked
when he learned from the Nile
Copper African elephants turning hostile
So he built these wonderful automaton bloaks
And a very big steam powered giraffe what smokes
Now the war is passed and over
We're left to sit and wonder
What is life and what is real?
And why do living things need feeling?
(One, two, three)
Chorus:
La-Da-Da-Da-Da (x3)
La-Da-Da-Da-Da-Da
La-Da-Da-Da-Da (x2)
La-Da-Da-Da-Da-Da-Da-Da-Da-Da
How'd you like to try pumping
lead through your veins
Or have a heart so wet and cold it starts rusting
When the world ticks around you,
voices tocking all the time
You live for feelings you've never felt
because you cannot feel
And what is this leaking affecting my eye?
Does the oil that is dripping mean this is a cry?
Will I ever be something with feelings to hide?
Or am I just a boiler with nothing inside?
I want all today
Don't want to hear you say
You can't do this, you can't do that
You're not a living thing with feeling
(One, two, three)
(Chorus)
Wind me up, turn the gears (Brass goggles!)
Wind me up, turn the gears (Brass goggles!)
Wind me up, turn the gears (Brass goggles, goggles, goggles!)
Wind me up, turn the gears (Brass googles!)
(Part 1 & 2 together)
Part 1:
I want all today
Don’t want to hear you say
I love you, I love you
I love-love-love you
Part 2:
Colonel Walter was shocked when he learned from the Nile
Copper African elephants turning hostile
So he built these wonderful automaton bloaks
And a very big steam powered giraffe what smokes
Wind me up, turn the gears (x4)
(Chorus)

Yes, Zer0 knocks over a camera by stomping the stage too hard with his foot at the end. - David "The Spine"
Steam Powered Giraffe 🦒 oof 🐘
oh no
Tell him the effect was awesome.
Hehe zero the effect was cool
Steam Powered Giraffe I personally think that was a nice added affect ^^
Man, I needed the pug head. I kept singing the wrong lyrics ;-;
That darn Chihuahua
Oh no, were you following the red star?
This is why you don't follow the red star!
GUYS I FOLLOWED THE RED STAR WHAT DO I DO
As iconic as The Jon was, I love this version with Zer0! their voices are very different, but the deepness of Zer0's works so well!
Lilith B I get what you mean, Zer0 and the Jon have such different sounds that both work really well with this song. When The Jon sings the "I love you" part it sounds like happy/hopeful but when Zer0 sings it it sounds like this sort of gritty and angsty, I honestly like the angsty feel more bc it adds like a whole new layer to the song and fits a little better with the story
Rabbit switching between her default and updated voicesets fills me with life.
This feels like the definitive edition of current Brass Goggles.
It's really cool!
Omg I literally thought the camera falling was intentional. It fit so perfectly with the chaos of that moment with the chorus hitting and Rabbit laughing 🥺
The camera couldn't handle the energy in the room and fainted from everyone's supersonic electronic harmonics!!
Epic, and so cool
The scale of pitch changes Rabbit goes through in this is frankly intimidating
As a trans woman myself I LOVE HOW SHE USES HER NEWER AND HER OLDER RABBIT VOICES. ITS AWESOME. I usually feel really sad when i use my old voice but i also love singing so i use it anyway and seeing someone else also doing that and with such amazing results as well makes me smile
Honey, just go for it. Sing the best way you can, as long as it fills you with joy and happiness. I am trans guy and I love to sing and who fucking cares that I mainly sing with highigher voice. As long as it makes me happy.... And as long as neighbours are not calling cops. xD And even among "cis" ladies and gentlemen your can find people who sing highly or very low for their own gender. Who. Cares. Your voice is your own. Let it be heard without any shame :)
@@Sachmeris easier said than done. My voice is a big dysphoria factor for me since i do theater
@@Sachmeris but still thank you so much!!
omg! right? especially the big end! like she has such amazing voice control and it was sorta hot?
Rabbit is such a treasure! 💗
I absolutely LOVE how Rabbit used both her old and new voice for this. Especially in the bridge??? Sent me chills when I first heard it, it’s so good!!!😅
Bunny just keeps getting more and more beautiful. She makes me smile every time
I’m so used to hearing the Steamworld recording, hearing Zer0’s rich harmony sent CHILLS up my back. SPG continues to never disappoint
This group inspired me to make a Warforged Bard character in my dungeons and dragons campaign. Whenever a battle breaks out, he busts out his lute and says "Attune your ears, to the grinding gears!"
You're a fucking genius I love it
I love that so much.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who had a Warforged SPG based character lol
The crowd just goes wild when rabbit started the song.
I love Bunny’s voice all the time but I especially love how she jumps around her range in this performance. She’s so talented. This vid is on my gender euphoria playlist as well as my “need something to sing to and feel things and feel better” playlist because it’s such a good time - such a good example of all the elements of the band and performance meshing together really well. Like a well-oiled machine.... I’m so glad I found this band.
rabbits voice gave me chills! i love her voice!!!
My 2 year old cant go a day without hearing some SPG I cant wait to take her to see a live showing someday
This is probably the coolest version of brass goggles I've ever heard
Many years ago this was the song that introduced you to me, glad to see it's evolution.
If you don’t find yourself dancing along when Rabbit says, “1-2-3!”, well, check your pulse. You might have expired! 😂
Best way to start 2019!
Ain't that the truth.
And 2020
as always my queen Rabbit is slaying it
It was this performance that convinced me Zero was absolutely a good addition to the band.
the only acceptable way to yeet yourself into the new year
i'll yeet myself everywhere
Love Rabbit going absolutely unhinged near the end as she deserves
The “Welcome to Denver Colorado!”
“IM A GIRAFFE” vine played in my head when I read the title to this video and I couldn’t stop laughing 😂
Jokes aside y’all are so wonderful and i love you so much, like, words can not describe! 💜😭💜
She’s having so much fun! A QUEEEN
This is my favourite piece of media ever. Even more perfect than the original music video.
why isnt anyone talking about how good this part is 3:38
This is the physically best way to break in the new year.
I’ll say it again, cannot get over Bunny’s vocals and general performance here. The way she absolutely goes off at the end of the tea time bit, the hat tip at the end…love that energy
i love how loud and full the chorus sounds theyve all really brought their a game in this one
So happy to see an official updated live version of this song with the new Rabbit!! It's one of my favorite songs, but it somehow felt wrong sharing the old version with the old rabbit, or unofficial versions. Great to see how much the song has grown and changed too! :)
Definitely one of the most energetic versions of Brass Goggles! Very nice.
the people who disliked this don't know how to me metal men
Normally I'm not one for live versions of songs, but this is absolute gold
no matter how many times i hear it 03:40 gives me chills, amazing!
I think it’s the growl she does- the song in general gives me chills lol
Ugh it’s even better than their first one with Jon. They just get better and better with time.❤️ Also bunny was one fiiiiiiiiiire.🔥
Where's the LOVE button?!?
Can I donate my spine to my lord and saviour, Spine?
This is my absolute favorite song and every time I hear it I just get so happy
What a perfect end to the year
Grinding gears always rocks the show !
Who else loves her real voice over the old one
what a fantastic brass goggles!! bunny’s voice continues to amaze me, that note at the end was so good 👌 i love zero’s “i love you”s and michael reed made the whole thing even more epic with the guitar. thank you guys for posting this!

joker review
I hope y’all are coming back to DFW soon, I wanna see y’all live again!
Good morning, God bless you, and have a good day.
Happy new year!
Do you guys have any plans on touring overseas anytime soon?
I have just found out about you recently but i already want to see you live.
You have earned a special place in my heart within the shortest amount of time. No other band has managed to do that before!
Love you guys!
This...sold me on Zer0. I adore it
wow now that is my favorite version
This makes me excited for Chicago!
Today, i have taken the wrong bus to who knows where, but... da da da dada... can’t stop watching your videos. 👏👏
This is really cool 😎
Happy New Year!
Thank you for sharing these live performances with us! ❤️
I love you guys so much
Wish they would bring back the "here we go's"
You guys are so talented! Every time you perform I'm in awe. Great job!!
I have concluded that the only way to adequately describe SPG is to share a link. They are otherwise ineffable.
Please come back to denver!!!!
I was very happy to see some new videos today :) Thanks for posting
Awesome as always
Happy New Year!
So sad I missed this
This song got sexy wow love it
Love it! Missed the concert in 2018 due to bronchitis
Wooo
See, I feel like if I showed this to someone who has never heard of steam powered giraffe before, they would be some confused about why they are talking about copper elephants, why there’s a robotic giraffe playin the piano, and it would be amazing
Wow, yet another missed opportunity to see SPG live. Gosh, I really need to find a babysitter and not get stationed somewhere every two years!
One of my very favorite versions of this song!! 💜💜💜
WHY DONT YOU GUYS HAVE MORE SUBS?! Your music is fab! My fav song in Honey Bee 👍👍👍👍👍
I hope u do amazing in 2019!
Ps- I'm a huge fan
Cute with Gigi
We need an updated version of this song on Spotify with Bunny's new voice
We do have a newer recorded version on our album “Music from SteamWorld Heist”, available on Spotify! It was recorded in 2015 :)
