Mr. Mechanical
From the moment I saw you I should have know we would fall though, cuz I'm not that kind of guy. The fire in your eyes may have made me fall apart but you put me back together part by part.
But I don't think you did it right my heads on loose these gears ain’t tight, and I'm not what I once was. I feel my heart pounding away in my solid state chest cuz while I feel I just cant seem to shake Mr. Mechanical.
I can't let up for a second and I can't let myself fall down. I'm no model of perfection I'm just a stupid stubborn clown. And I can smoke my inspiration and I can drink myself on down but while your begging me for loving you know ill never hit the ground.
Well yeah my heart is always beating and in my heads it's all programed, all the motions pre-configured laid out in my master plan. Then along comes a lovely senorita wielding a wrench while she flirts.
Now Mr. Mechanical no longer works.
