Lyrics for New Machine

This time get me home I've got to build a new machine I'm tired of whats on your screen I've got to build a new machine I'm under new influences I'm under new influences A longed for modernity A welcome infirmity A longed for modernity A welcome infirmity No time for coffee, no time for tea Bomb threats keep me off the streets It's all so normal everyone I meet Nowhere to roam, I'll just go home Nowhere to roam, I'll just go under (Under new influences) I'll just go under, I'll just go under Under new influences A longed for modernity A welcome infirmity A longed for modernity A welcome infirmity Six o'clock and once again you're not there And I know it's time to go home for once I've got to build a new machine Tired of what's on your goddamn screen Can't compare with what I dream I've got to build a new machine (I've got to build a new machine) You can't compare what I dream (I've got to build a new machine) I've got to build a new machine (I've got to build a new machine) I've got to build a new machine (I've got to build a new machine) I've got to build a new machine I've got to build a new machine
