lyrics

Now we’re in the earth’s twilight
It’s not without its highlights
I lost ten pounds on the big fight
Torn from a clover, my luck is over
Staying out of the spotlight
A subterranean luddite
On the factory floor
Lack of refinement, it’s not a science

Taking apart the machine
From the outside it’s mighty clean
I root around on the inside
I’m free

I’ve put it down to boredom
And the rule of the warden
Tired of working the lathe
I think I’ve had it
So I put a spanner into it
And tore up the meeting minutes
But on the way out I blew it
Bungled the operation

Taking apart the machine
From the outside it’s mighty clean
They root around on the inside of me

Hooked up to a machine
One hundred and twenty volts
Time passing by so quickly
The first cut hurt a little

It’s like a new kind of love
Without the inevitable pain that it implies through absence
Come on and cure my scatterbrain
I let go of something in that moment
Felt like a ball and a chain
Had loosened
Different but the same

I’m doing eighty words a minute
My car knowledge is infinite
When something’s broken I bin it
I’m a disciple of the new bible
Reorientation
And spectral visitation
They’re offering salvation
I turned my head to listen
Then I said to the spirit
“I’ll be down in a minute”
I turned on the television
And scratched at the incision

This professional conduct
Is more than a dream
It’s becoming a map for my nerves
Now you see
This world on loop feels pretty nice
I’ve got every pleasure device
To keep on picking me up
Like cold cola and ice

Hit the waves on pleasure beach
I want to ride on that highway
For days and days and days
