Letra Purely automatic Brendan Benson

Purely automatic

When you're rolling in your armored tank
For what you're about to receive you have me to thank
But it's not necessary from what I've seen
You're going to tell me what exactly what you mean?

If two can play at that game, it's simple mathematics
If you keep acting this way, then you create the static
And I can be just the same, it's so democratic
I guess I know that you think it's lame, but it's purely
automatic

And now you say you don't want to see me
Like switching channels on the tv
I've come to live with your acting (?)
If I call off the search party now and you've got to tell
them

If two can play at that game, it's simple mathematics
If you keep acting this way, then you create the static
And I can be just the same, it's so democratic
Yes, I know that you think it's lame but it's purely
automatic
It's purely automatic
Just the other day I saw them laughing
And then she passed him something she wrote on her napkin
You'd better make your move, you'd better act fast
Cause there's no telling how long this could last

If two can play at that game, it's simple mathematics
If you keep acting this way, then you create the static
And I can be just the same, it's so democratic
Yes, I know that you think it's lame, but it's purely
automatic
It's purely automatic
Purely automatic…
