The Men That Will Not Be Blamed For Nothing

Vive La Difference Engine

In a shed down by the docks
Lives a very clever box
And its children will
One day rule the world

Only one man knows
The potential that it shows
How its DNA will spread
Throughout the globe

He has tried but can't explain
What it's for and what's its aim
As it clicks and clacks
Through algebra and sums

Though built with his own hands
He can't truly understand
Its importance to the future,
To mankind

Vive la Difference Engine, Engine,
Lurking in a Limehouse
backstreet shed!
Future events are set in motion
Watch the machine's
first faltering steps

It will analyse statistics
Whilst you have your tea and biscuits
Predict probable outcomes

Of events

Deep inside it knows
Its calculations show
That its descendants will attain sentience

And when Mr Babbage dies
His caretaker will try
To hide the box from spies
From overseas

If it falls in the wrong hands
It could threaten England
Its existence must remain
A mystery

Vive la Difference Engine, Engine,
Lurking in a Limehouse
backstreet shed!
Future events are set in motion
Watch the machine's first faltering steps

Vive la Difference Engine, Engine,
Lurking in a Limehouse
backstreet shed!
Future events are set in motion
Watch the machine's first faltering steps
