Machine Man

Machine Man Fenton/Ellerbeck/Ellerbeck/Askew

Here I am again, oh it’s getting late
Suffering under pressure, cos I got a deadline to make
It’s so hard, expected to flow
My mind is not a machine, oh don’t make me scream

So my mind is spinning around while I’m trying to find this and I’m trying to find that
It all comes down to rooking on the sound
But I don’t know coz it’s under the ground
It all comes to working and pushing and laying

Maybe I got a weakness, now there gonna pick on I
I know what your going to say, and I ain’t gonna take it that way because,
When I’m down there in the night, all alone
Everybody’s so far away, It’s no wonder I get stoned

Billy wrote a song but it wasn’t very long
So I had a little word but he said it was absurd
And he didn’t want a bar of it
So I told him he was full of it

I’m trying keep him sweet but the buggers lost the beat
Now he’s getting in my face with a billy bodge it bass, So I told him I was sick of it
Now he’s gonna and pulled the plug on it.




Sorry doesn’t work when your dealing with a jerk
Now he’s gone and lost the plot coz I tried to pinch his spot
And I’m getting pretty jack of it
All I wanted was to sing a bit

Billy wrote a song and I s’pose he can’t be wrong
So I’ll shut my north and south that’s rhyming slang for mouth
Mickey told me to back off a bit
Before Billy has another fit

Getting old so I’m told take a pill make a will
Feel the heat wash my feet never let my thoughts repeat,
You here I

Dig a hole sell your soul pull the pin shut your din
Feel the heat on the street gotta keep your neighbour sweet,
You here I

Stand in line one more time turn your back fear attack Pressure day start to pray never let your needle stray You here I

I’m not, not a machine, you here I
I’m not, not a machine
Everything is flowing into one another
Now people are starting to discover
I’m not, not a machine
Let me tell you this
I’m not, not a machine, you here I
