I'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
