Mechanical Man Songtext

von Billie Joe Armstrong

I ain't a politician
Just a bad musician
Whatcha gonna do for me?

Do you have a taste for
Sex and blood and hate, or
Really good LSD

I'd like to start a band with
You will sing and you can
Learn to play the tambourine

Here's an invitation
No time for hesitation
Come and join my family

[Chorus]
I live inside of you
But you don't belong to me
I'm a reflection of you
What's my recipe?

Half a cup satanical
Teaspoon pure hitanical
Stir it with a bloody hand
Quarter cup messiahcal
Sprinkle of maniacle
Now I'm a mechanical man

I'll give you the heads up
Come on and get your legs up
This is called the family jam

Together we'll stay hidden
Wait for Armageddon
Stick it to the man

[Chorus]

[Talking]
"hhmmm.. Watch this jam woman...
Gonna learn some right now..."

[Singing]
Open up the curtains
Then we'll start hurting
Come on lets do the creepy crawl
The shows about to go down
Come I got the low down
Together we'll make Hollywood fall

I live inside of you
But you don't belong to me
I'm a reflection of you
What's my recipe?

[Chorus]
