about

A momentary, bird-like trance. Wait for it.

lyrics

Millions of regulated ozone. I am all through in parts, the Automated Man.
Especially when fine, air is rising and Roses Crystalline. How many candles died to make this bulb?
Outsourcing quickly, we ramp up the specialisms. In fact, lucrative. A bronze pea-sized amount.
So you're flailing into the middle distance, a spent force.

We continue to automate - it's fluid, exchange. Let's throw some numbers around. Regardless, we become the Automated Man. This Supine Leviathan.
When the future drops anchor I plan to steal aboard, just one fierce streak.
I can be out of there in a few seconds before they know I am alive.
This is the equivalent of a momentary bird-like trance.
Up and over the side.

Meanwhile on a cellular level, interred peaceful in hamster-coloured Metro with MG badge.
If insurance go poking around they'll find a 1.4 but we just won't crash it. It is automated pincer time, can we grumble about this?
The motions are smooth. Let's describe a memory.
