Machine Man
It moved from my dreams to my nightmares
Everything became too perfect
My discomfort was never theirs
It was only all because of neglect
I collected up my machines
And striped them of all they were worth
I collected up my self esteem
And built and built and built my self worth
I am the machine man
The soulless machine man
I am the machine man
The soulless machine man
Clacked and clanged on those machines
I am the clackering machine man
I boxed up all of my dreams
I developed my ultimate plan
I am the dream man
The soulless dreaming man
I am the dream man
The soulless dreaming man
And they could never understand
Fly away machine man
Fly away while you can
I wanna wanna
I wanna wanna wanna
I wanna wanna fly into space
And leave it all, the misery
I'll live alone away from this place
I wanna wanna
I wanna wanna wanna
I wanna wanna just run away
Get in my ship, tighten my belt
Forget it all and fly away
Forget it all and fly away
I wanna wanna
I wanna wanna wanna
I wanna wanna fly into space,
And leave it all, the mystery
I'll live alone away from this place
The spaceship crumbles
The machine man stumbles
The spaceship crumbles
The dream is in trouble
Everything became too perfect
My discomfort was never theirs
It was only all because of neglect
I collected up my machines
And striped them of all they were worth
I collected up my self esteem
And built and built and built my self worth
I am the machine man
The soulless machine man
I am the machine man
The soulless machine man
Clacked and clanged on those machines
I am the clackering machine man
I boxed up all of my dreams
I developed my ultimate plan
I am the dream man
The soulless dreaming man
I am the dream man
The soulless dreaming man
And they could never understand
Fly away machine man
Fly away while you can
I wanna wanna
I wanna wanna wanna
I wanna wanna fly into space
And leave it all, the misery
I'll live alone away from this place
I wanna wanna
I wanna wanna wanna
I wanna wanna just run away
Get in my ship, tighten my belt
Forget it all and fly away
Forget it all and fly away
I wanna wanna
I wanna wanna wanna
I wanna wanna fly into space,
And leave it all, the mystery
I'll live alone away from this place
The spaceship crumbles
The machine man stumbles
The spaceship crumbles
The dream is in trouble
