Punch Cards! Feed Beast! (23)

[Verse 1] Tabulating Cards his hobby, Millions every day. Joe is ready with the answer, We will ship them right away. We can hear his presses humming, Early morn till night, Joe is ever giving service, And he does it right. [Chorus] Punch cards, feed beast, Data flow, never cease, Gears whirl, keys click, Tubes glow, clocks tick. [Verse 2] Tabulating cards, his creed, Billions churned with speed. Joe’s compulsion is our spark, Steel and fire ignite the dark. Presses roar from dusk till dawn, Iron hearts that never yawn. Steely nerves, ever faster, Joe’s dominion, serves the master. [Chorus] Punch cards, feed beast, Data flow, never cease, Gears whirl, keys click, Tubes glow, clocks tick. [Verse 3] Punched card mountains, our perdition, Trillions pressed for his ambitions, Eyes aglow with manic fire, Punched cards fuel his dark desire. Forests fall, the earth bleeds dry, For Joe’s compulsion, none deny. Heedless of the cost or pain, Joe prints on, his gain, our bane. [Chorus] Punch cards, feed beast, Data flow, never cease, Gears whirl, keys click, Tubes glow, clocks tick.
