'm switched on and twisted, so hung up in my life

I feel nihilistic, automatic tonight

Caught up in the middle, a mental wasteland

It hurts just a little, nobody understands

Automatic, stuck on automatic, automatic, stuck on automatic

A kid he was gifted, lost it all in one night

He turned on, he missed it, he was warped, he was wired

Heard a steel tapdance, staccato double time

Rhythm was the answer, any groove was fine

Automatic, stuck on automatic, automatic, stuck on automatic

(Solo)

Automatic's on time, when nothin' else will fit

In a corner you try, you can't get out of it

Wear the mask you creature, cause a major scene

No one saw you leave here, cut it loose and clean

Automatic, stuck on automatic, automatic, stuck on automatic

Automatic, stuck on automatic, automatic, stuck on automatic
