Lyrics

[00:00.00]
[00:39.31] If this machine doesn't stop,
[00:42.31] What will you do if it never goes out
[00:45.78] Never goes out of season
[00:50.92] It never stops as it turns,
[00:54.28] There ain't no passion,
[00:56.00] Yet it burns
[00:57.51] Introducing my prison
[01:03.15] Losing myself in this place,
[01:06.34] Soon I'm gone without a trace
[01:09.16] Freed with that final incision
[01:15.12] Look my heart it's a bird,
[01:18.43] It needs to sing and to be heard
[01:21.70] Not this clockwork precision
[01:28.12] And the machine grows idiotic
[01:33.44] Who's gonna be its ingenious critic
[01:40.08] Everybody loves the perfect solution
[01:45.94] To beat the odds against
[01:48.09] The poorest possible substitution
[01:52.16] What you see is never
[01:54.30] What you're gonna get
[01:57.47] Everybody's playing revolution roulette
[02:06.23]
[02:16.04] Gives you no arguments to trade,
[02:19.11] You can try the key or you can wait
[02:22.61] But the lock will not open
[02:27.69] So you're left with sanity to lose,
[02:31.63] Cos the machine is a ruse
[02:34.47] Another invention to rule them
[02:40.13] It's like a fistful of snake eyes,
[02:43.80] A hand grenade with bye byes
[02:46.97] Like a million spent on nothing
[02:52.41] It's kinda like a pick in their lock,
[02:55.55] When you never went 'knock knock,
[02:58.52] Hello, anybody home?
[03:00.97] I'm coming in'.
[03:02.19] With a touch of foreboding
[03:05.88] And the machine grows parasitic
[03:11.30] Who's gonna criticize the good critic
[03:17.13] Everybody loves the perfect solution
[03:23.19] To beat the odds against
[03:25.46] The poorest possible substitution
[03:29.35] What you see is never
[03:31.72] What you're gonna get
[03:34.63] Everybody's playing revolution roulette
[03:42.50]
[03:52.97] Everybody has the perfect solution
[03:58.60] It's just hard to resist the sweet seduction
[04:05.52] There ain't no trick to winning double what you bet
[04:11.88] Welcome to revolution roulette
[04:16.73]
[04:45.33] Everybody loves the perfect solution
[04:51.10] To beat the odds against
[04:53.41] The poorest possible substitution
[04:57.40] What you see is never
[05:00.00] What you're gonna get
[05:02.87] Everybody's playing
[05:06.24] Everybody's playing
