the children pick the labels before they speak
of pirate software of sex and of e
and mommy's with her play-mate down on her knees
she's building a history 'cos her future's obsolete

in automation
automation
automation
evolution's hit rewind

the children pick the needles to secure the creed
of the self and all self-pity breeds
the leaders of the countries keep the skeletons safe
keep the streets full of those who kill and rape

it's automation
automation
automation
evolution's hit rewind

the children pick the labels before they speak
of pirate software of sex and of e
and mommy's with her play-mate down on her knees
she's building a history 'cos her future's obsolete

it's terrorist action channel one thru ten
just pray it lasts 'til christmas, watch those ratings kick in
or download salvation or porn or your feelings
don't worry about the phrasing the spell-check is working

in automation
it's automation
it's automation
evolution's hit rewind
