Machine
A machine is a tool containing one or more parts that uses energy to perform an intended action. Machines are usually powered by mechanical, chemical, thermal, or electrical means, and are often motorized. Historically, a power tool also required moving parts to classify as a machine. However, the advent of electronics has led to the development of power tools without moving parts that are considered machines.
A simple machine is a device that simply transforms the direction or magnitude of a force, but a large number of more complex machines exist. Examples include vehicles, electronic systems, molecular machines, computers, television, and radio.
Etymology
The word machine derives from the Latin word machina, which in turn derives from the Greek (Doric μαχανά makhana, Ionic μηχανή mekhane "contrivance, machine, engine", a derivation from μῆχος mekhos "means, expedient, remedy").
A wider meaning of "fabric, structure" is found in classical Latin, but not in Greek usage.
This meaning is found in late medieval French, and is adopted from the French into English in the mid-16th century.
The Works (Queen album)
The Works is the eleventh studio album by the British rock band Queen, released in February 1984. After the synth-heavy Hot Space, the album saw the re-emergence of Brian May and Roger Taylor's rock sound, while still incorporating the early 80s retro futuristic electro pop of the German electronic underground (Freddie Mercury) and New York funk scenes (John Deacon).
Recorded at the Record Plant Studios and Musicland Studios from August 1983 to January 1984, the album's title comes from a comment Taylor made as recording began – "Let's give them the works!". During the decade, the band decided not to tour in North America and lost the top spot in US sales, but sales around the world (especially Europe) would be even better. The Works sold over 5 million copies worldwide.
History
Following the release of and subsequent touring for their 1982 album Hot Space, the four members of Queen opted to take a break from the band the following year, indulging in solo projects and taking the chance to stretch in individual directions. While a spring tour of South America had been an early possibility, especially following the band's success there two years prior, equipment and promotional problems brought an end to these plans. Brian May worked with Eddie Van Halen and others on the Star Fleet Project, while Freddie Mercury began work on his solo album. By August 1983, however, the band had reunited and began work on their eleventh studio album. It would be Queen's first album for EMI (and its US affiliate Capitol Records) worldwide after the band nullified its recording deal with Elektra for the US, Canada, Australia and Japan.

Machines
by: Modern EnglishOld machinery's broken down
There's no new past, there's no new sound
What would you do if they crumbled to the ground
Wake up, you must be dreaming
Changes in our lives
We'll make it in the end
Machinery's broken in two
What are we to do?
Where were you when the day caved in
It seems the streets were the place to be
Something quite disturbing filled the air
Wake up, you must be dreaming, what an uneasy feeling
Machine fell down and smashed the ground
People cried for miles around
Well, that's what someone said
Wake up, you must be dreaming, a quite uneasy feeling
Changes in our lives
We'll make it in the end
Machinery's broken in two
What are we to do?
Changes in our lives
We'll make it in the end
Machinery's broken in two
What are we to do?
What are we to do?
What are we to do?
What are we to do?
What are we to do?
Changes in our lives
We'll make it in the end
Machinery's broken in two
What are we to do?
When the day came by, I looked about
You were nowhere to be found
What are we to do?
(Wake up, you must be dreaming)
What are we to do?
What are we to do?
(Wake up, you must be dreaming)
What are we to do?
What are we to do?
(Wake up, you must be dreaming)
