Silver Machine

Originally by Hawkwind.

The Sisters of Mercy covered Hawkwind's Silver Machine only few times, mostly within medleys,

twice during their 1993 summer tour at the first gig on 10 July at the Leysin Festival in Switzerland

and at the last gig in Losheim at the Rock Am See-Festival on September 4th in Germany.

A verse of the song had previously been included into the Sister Ray-Medley at the Pukkelpop-Festival in Hasselt on 29 August 1992

Also they did Silver Machine at Keighley Fun House in March'82 as an encore.

Lyrics

I, I just took a ride
in a silver machine
and I'm still feeling mean

Do you want to ride
see yourself going by
The other side of the sky
I got a silver machine

It flies sideways through time
It's an electric line
To your Zodiac sign

I got silver machine (3x)
8mile silver machine

It flies out of a dream
It's anti-septically clean
You're gonna know where I've been
In my silver machine
