Machine Lyrics

I do my talking, and I do it well

For when I wake up in the morning, I plan deceit but never tell

I lie with a grin that goes from cheek to cheek

Convince you I'm the man that you have always seeked

But under my disguise, oh, my pen and paper

Tells the truth about all my long hard labours

My years in the fields and my thinking with the sheep

Has left me wanting more than just some silk bed sheets

I play one lonely string, that sits on one ancient violin

Turns the red light green, full speed, I feel like I'm made of

machine

Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh

I whisper poison in the right man's ear

I play the rumours and suspicions against his greatest fears

Lock his mind with paranoia and tears

Goodbye my friend, it's been a good few years

I play one lonely string, that sits on one ancient violin

Turns the red light green, full speed, I feel like I'm made of

machine

Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh
