There's a bump in the basement 
There's a knocking on the wall 
In the pumping of the pistons 
I swear I heard your call 
There's a bump in the basement 
There's a hole in the floor 
There's a guard in the garden 
Locking up the door 


There's a rumble in the floorboards 
No shutting out the sound 
And the workers are below me 
Digging underground 
Feel the building all around me 
Like a wrap of armoured skin 
But the more we are protected 
The more we're trapped within 


Tell it like it is 
Till there's no misunderstanding 
When You strip it right back 
Man feed machine 
Machine feed man 

Tell it like it is 
Till there's no misunderstanding 
Make up what you like 
Man feed machine 
Machine feed man 


Brick by brick 
Brick by brick 
Brick by brick 
We're building
