Looking back three hundred years, when horses ruled and turned the gears
No one saw the future yet to come
Life went on much the same, a different pace, nothing changed
But now the march of progress has begun!
Here comes the revolution
Here comes the age of steam
Stoke the fires to superheat, work the mine, the coal is deep
Feed the beast, the slave of industry
People come to join the race from towns and fields to claim a stake
Of promised riches in cities paved with gold!
Here comes the revolution
Here comes the age of steam
Here comes the revolution
Here comes the age of steam
New machines of iron and steel, pulled the plow and turned the wheel
Every new invention changed the world
The railways came on iron tracks, crossed the world, no turning back
Bringing wealth and power to the few
Here comes the revolution
Here comes the age of steam
Here comes the revolution
Here comes the age of steam
