Head Automatica Album

Smudged funnies in a broken bottle on the dot at nine
Daddy throws clothes, throws on an old stove
I'm crying in the corner at five
Well I've seen black and I've seen blue but fine lines I don't see
And just because I am in misery
Don't it mean a thing that I want to know
That I want to know

Graduation Day
Graduation Day
We take back everything we said about you

September
As far as she remember, they don't teach humility
And just because her only signal is mayday
Don't it mean a thing
That she's seen love and she's faired war but fairness she can't see
And just because she is in misery
Don't it mean a thing that she wants to know
That she wants to know

Graduation Day
Graduation Day
We take back everything we said about you

That camaraderie's old
Doing what I'm told
And everybody know this is getting out of hand
Everybody is dying for
That chance to be heard not ignored
And everybody know this is getting out of hand

Graduation Day
Graduation Day
We take back everything we said about you

I'm not going to school

Welcoming you to cardboard city where I think they're laughing at you band
Did you have a clue that it was pretty on the gritty bottom of a van?
I'm feeling sorry for you band
Like really sorry 'bout your band

You don't got a clue
They're laughing at you
Laughing yes it's true
You don't even see
They're laughing at you
Laughing at you to me

You following is fleeting
Watch what you're reading
You might start believing what they're saying about you and who you know
I'm talking shameless
In the thick of it, You can't get rid of it
Desperation is calling you

You don't got a clue
They're laughing at you
Laughing yes it's true
You don't even see
They're laughing at you
Laughing at you to me

There are some things you gotta know
They will surround you when you fall
And they will steal your heaven's toll

Everybody knows you're a liar, why don't I?
I just heard about your lovin' on the side
You're telling tall tales girl
Spinning webs too big to climb
Everybody know you're a liar, why don't I?

I always knew you were a fraud

You're lying through your teeth
You're not at all, not at all what you seem

Girl your love's so cheap, we been passing you around
There's cheating on you lips and you've been the talk of my town
Fix your mask girl
It's crooked on the side
Everybody know you're a liar what don't I?

I needed just a hit, one hit
It's very little hit, I'm sure I won't like it
I needed to be heard, one hit would send me flying

I got away with murder last night in the parking lot
In cold blood I have murdered parts of us that we forgot

I walked into a kiss, on kiss
From the very lonely miss who lives to fulfil my wish
I needed to be hurt, one kiss would send me flying

I got away with murder last night in the parking lot
In cold blood I have murdered parts of us that we forgot

I will be going nowhere fast
Nowhere fast

I had to write a hit, one hit
It's a very little hit, I'm sure you won't like it
I needed to rehearse, one hit would send me flying

You ain't loved me right for a while
And for your hand and word I'd crawl a mile

For all that I know
You're still scandalous

You're so scandalous
I just can't handle it

You ain't loved me right for a while

For all that I know
You're still scandalous

You're so scandalous
I just can't handle it

Grin and bear it
I'll wear it
(My crown of thorns)
They gotta be pointed
I gotta be hunted
No mercy
No mercy
(My crown of thorns)
I gotta be hated
I gotta be hated

Speaking of heaven, she looked like a god on earth
It was something I could not understand, or explain
I mean you
Don't know
The things I do while you are out cold
The things I do for you will lead to my breakdown
But I'm still curious

My baby's kiss is like a heart attack
Running like that
Squeezing till my face turns black
She pulled me under

But I mean you
Gotta know
The things I do for you while you are out cold
The things I do for you will lead to my breakdown
But I'm still curious

Breakdown

I got a question
Let me ask you, can you explain your reasoning to me?
It ain't a matter of my hard luck or bad luck
When there's no luck in it for me
I'm not the type of man to hold a grudge against
Something I can hardly see
But to say that there's a reason for everything
Make me doubtful and intrigued to say the least

God you don't want to answer me
But if you do, you'd better agree
God you've got the strangest sense of humor
You're too funny to be so heavenly

I got you number and you own me
Show me a little common decency
I kneel before you and you bless me, test me
And answer with a plague inside of me
I'm not the type of man to pleas with the sky above
Or with the demon under me
But to say that there's a reason for everything
Makes me doubtful and intrigued to say the least

God you don't want to answer me
But if you do, you'd better agree
God you've got the strangest sense of humor
You're too funny to be so heavenly

Now, is this just creative, or was I meant to be a killer killing
Lovers in the street?
Sometimes the most unlikely prove themselves to be a liar
Everything you said to me

I'm glad I'm alive and there's no way I'm touching ground again

I saw a blind man shackled up by his hands and feet
Escaping when his face touched the concrete
And the same way you play vicious
Well, that's the same way you agree
Endearing
An endearing empathy

I'm gland i'm alive and there's no way I'm touching ground again

I'd be shot in the back by my fears

We came and went
too much time was spent
In the flows of the runaway holiday
But you can't afford me
And now jude can't afford me
Oh I can't be rich I'm responsible
If you even care let me know
I love you so
But I want your crowd to go
Now you're asking me
Asking me

Who made the million dollar decision?
I made decisions of my heart

You see a man
with his head in his hands
That's the portrait of a runaway devil for you makin' your demands
You came before me
Now you can't afford me
Oh I can't be rich I'm responsible
If you even care let me know
I love you so
But I want your crowd to go
Now you're asking me
Asking me

Who made the million dollar decision?
I made decisions of my heart
Who made the million dollar decision?
I pay for it when we're apart

You're falling to your death
Forgiving what you get
You took the fall
You're falling to your death
And now you're asking me
You're asking me
You're falling to your death
Forgiving what you get
You took the fall
You're falling to your death
And now you're asking me
Asking me

Who made the million dollar decision?
I made decisions of my heart
Try to get the best of me
And tell the biggest lies to me
I pay for it when we're apart
I made decisions of my heart

I made decisions from my heart

She's not it
She's really not it
She is
She's really not it

You know I'm glad that she's not alive
She quit her job when she was 45
This kind of drama hits me every day
She got a job I got a salary
But you know me
I will do what I gotta do
In spite of you
And you will me patiently
Dreaming of me
In spite of you
Miserably

She's not it
She's really not it
She is
She's really not it

I got a couple things I really need to say
One of 'em is funny and the other is passe
Walk the plank
She had me swimmin' in the whole damn tank
Yeah, but you know me
I will do what I gotta do
In spite of you
Then will me patiently
Dreaming of me
In spite of you
In misery

She's not it
She's really not it
She is
She's really not it

Cause I'm leavin'
I'm leavin'
And I just can't help these
just can't help these
feelings

I'm still breathin'
No more deceivin'
And I just can't help these
just can't help these
feelings

She's not it (No she's not it)
She's really not it (No she's not it)
She is (No she's not it)
She's really not it (No she's not it)
She's not it (No she's not it)
She's really not it (No she's not it)
She is (No she's not it)
She's really not it (No she's not it)

She told me all the things she knew
You give her one she'd reach for two
The cold four on the sofa is getting closer
And she's the hardest thing to do
When the mantis in her preys on you
An appetite fit for a king in a love

I dont wanna bore you, but here I go again
Cannibal Girl
You've been eating me alive
I dont wanna bore you, but here I go again
Cannibal Girl

So lately I've been meaning to
Say a few things to you
She gets all the good attention
And I get honored with the mention
And shes the hardest thing to do
When the mantis in her preys on you
An appetite fit for the kids you love

I dont wanna bore you, but here I go again
Cannibal girl
You've been eating me alive
I dont wanna bore you, but here I go again
Cannibal girl

And that's what hearts are for
You give her one she breaks more
Its the changing of the guard
And now the last one to know
When it's all just for show
And Im trying to be so hard

I dont wanna bore you, but here I go again
Cannibal girl
You've been eating me alive
I dont wanna bore you, but here I go again
Cannibal girl
You've been eating me alive

I dont wanna bore you here I go again
Cannibal girl
You've been eating me alive
I dont wanna bore you here I go again
Cannibal girl

(Beating Heart Baby)
Baby is this love for real?
(Beating Heart Baby)
Let me in your arms to feel
(Beating Heart Baby)
The beating of your heart, baby
(Beating Heart Baby)
The beating of you heart, baby

You, you want nothing to do with me [x2]
I, I don't know what to do with you
Cuz you don't know what you do to me

[Chorus:]
Baby is this love for real?
Let me in your arms to feel
The beating heart baby
The beating of your heart, baby
[repeat]

Girl, you really got your hold on me [x2]
Girl, you gotta get away from me
'Cause you want nothing to do with me

[Chorus (x2)]

In spite of you
Even out of view
Still I love all of you
I do, yeah
[repeat]

You, you want nothing to do with me [x2]

[Chorus (x3)]
