Wrench turns slow on nitrous line
Kettle sings in halogen shine
Piston breathes a copper song
Diner hums the whole night long
Grease and steam in midnight air
Two worlds meet but neither care
Wrench and spoon keep steady time
Burning clean like moonshine rhyme
Torque wrench clicks on chromed head
Coffee drips where night shift led
Valves adjust with surgeon's grace
Steam curls up from enamel face
Grease and steam in midnight air
Two worlds meet but neither care
Wrench and spoon keep steady time
Burning clean like moonshine rhyme
Regulars don't lift their eyes
Pie stays warm in glass surprise
Mechanic wipes his oil-stained thumb
Kettle whistles, moment come
Grease and steam in midnight air
Two worlds meet but neither care
Wrench and spoon keep steady time
Burning clean like moonshine rhyme
Engine purrs a satisfied growl
Cook refills the ceramic bowl
Keys hit ignition, tires bite
Dawn breaks loose on highway white
Grease and steam in midnight air
Two worlds meet but neither care
Wrench and spoon keep steady time
Burning clean like moonshine rhyme
Grease and steam forever rhyme
Kettle quiet, wrench laid down
