Verse 1]
This machine's a backward thinker
It works for you until its neck cuts
It's not so hard to be a person
If you've got something you can reference
[Chorus]
Grease in your hair
Fingernail polish
Water balloon eyes
Turning me off
[Verse 2]
I'll work up a senseless speech
I just don't know how I'm gonna say it
The second I stand up I freeze
My homemade movie used to fail
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't splash apart
Everything changes
All jumbled up
Wide-open spaces
Grease in your hair
Fingernail polish
Water balloon еyes
Telling me off
[Chorus]
Down wе go on the ground
Magnets make machines go crazy
I used to know you well
You give me such a future fear
We're in the middle of
Some kind of cosmic rearrangement
You were so funny then
And I kept thinking I would catch it
[Bridge]
So you won't stay
Nothing is stable
Whip on a cape
Step on a cable
I have no more feelings for
I have no more friend of mine
I am no more feeling for
I am no more friend of mine
[Chorus]
Grease in your hair
Fingernail polish
Water balloon eyes
Telling me off
Don't splash apart
Everything changes
All jumbled up
Wide-open spaces
[Post-Chorus]
Down we go on the ground
Magnets make machines go crazy
I used to know you well
You give me such a future fear
We're in the middle of
Some kind of cosmic rearrangement
You were so funny then
And I kept thinking I would catch it
[Outro]
And I kept thinking I would catch it
And I kept thinking I would catch it
And I kept thinking I would catch it
And I kept thinking I would catch it
