lyrics

Machines Get Cleaned (Lyrics by Bev Rage, Music by Bev Rage, Westerling, Jarvis, and Gonzales)

It was Monday then it was the weekend
Did we jump ahead or go back a whole season?
My head’s pounding
You’re astounding
The chemicals in my brain are broken
Can’t recall the last time we had spoken
Got no reasons
Have no receipts

Machines get cleaned
It happens every single day
Hey you’re not around me?
Finally, came clean
I told you everything I need
Hey, you’re not around me!

My calendar has birthdays of my exes
My sex life is controlled by my hexes
What’s your secret
To have no regret?
I stand in line while ghosts dance in a circle
The reward will come if I take my turn
I’m unstable
You’re enabled

Machines get cleaned
It happens every single day
Hey you’re not around me?
Finally, came clean
I told you everything I need
Hey, you’re not around me!

Consider it, considerate
When will we learn our lesson?
Consider it, considerate
When will we learn our lessons?

Machines get cleaned
It happens every single day
Hey you’re not around me?
Finally, came clean
I told you everything I need
Hey, you’re not around me!
