Broken Machine - Electric Six

Your broken machine has some questions for me

Wants to know a little bit about my history

It wants to know why I write these ridiculous songs

It wants to know everything that turns me on

And what turns me on is you

So now that’s what turns it on too

Its methods are filling me with doubt

This experience is starting to creep me out

It doesn’t do anything, it just sits there

It doesn’t do anything, it just sits there

And looks at me

M-m-mechanical meltdown

It should be thrown away

It should be scrapped by sundown

But broken machine is here to stay

Yeah broken machine thinks it’s fair to me

But it only sees what it wants to see

It looks into me to see what I’m made of

It’s trying so hard to understand our love

And it sees that I love you

And so you’re the one that it loves, too

It wants to understand the workings of our heart

It doesn’t care if it tears us apart

It doesn’t do anything, it just sits there

It doesn’t do anything, it just sits there

And looks at me

M-m-mechanical meltdown

It should be thrown away

Sa-sa-satanic shutdown

But broken machine is here to stay

You know what, machine?

My mind’s not big enough for the both of us.

But they tell me you’re here to stay.

I guess that’s what I get for

surrounding myself with technology!

M-m-mechanical meltdown

You should be thrown away

You should be scrapped by sundown

But broken machine is here to stay

Broken machine is here to stay

Broken machine is here to stay

Broken machine is here to stay

Broken machine is here to stay
