I get up in the morning
And take my bath
I turn off the heat
Take my meds

I head out for breakfast
Hit the Waffle House
They know what to cook
When they see me coming

It's Automatic
I don't feel anything
I just react
I go through the motions
It's Automatic
I'm a living machine
I plow through the day
With no emotion

Been an Internet prisoner
These last 10 years
Networking with friends
Around the world

When my posting's done
I'm back on the mattress
I don't like those dreams
Even a robot sleeps

It's Automatic
I don't feel anything
I just react
I go through the motions
It's Automatic
I'm a living machine
I plow through the day
With no emotion
