This is a live version of 'Welcome To The Machine' in the Nassau Coliseum, Long Island, New York, USA on August 19th, 1988th. Taken from the Soundboard. Excelent sound and quality. Lyrics: Welcome my son, 'Welcome To The Machine'. Where have you been? It's alright we know where you've been. You've been in the pipeline, filling in time, provided with toys and Scouting for Boys.

The advert promotes their Elave range with the slogan 'Nothing to Hide'. The range has been on sale in Boots and independent pharmacies since late last year.

You bought a guitar to punish your ma, And you didn't like school, and you know you're nobody's fool, So welcome to the machine. Welcome my son, 'Welcome To The Machine'. What did you dream?

It's alright we told you what to dream. You dreamed of a big star, he played a mean guitar, He always ate in the Steak Bar. He loved to drive in his Jaguar. So welcome to the machine. Composed by: Waters. Nassau Coliseum, Long Island, New York, USA, 19th August 1988th.
