Modest Mouse Steam Engenius Lyrics
I was born in a factory
Far away from the milky teat
What's the use?
Oh, what's the use?
You cheered as I was split in half
A mechanical sacrificial calf for you
Oh, all for you
Steam engenius, you see?
Steam engenius, enough to answer anything you need
But what's the use?
Human nature was installed in me
Well I did what's right, but naturally it wasn't natural
Still not my fault
I held in my hands the beating heart of a robot
He'd lost his car, it was sitting there crying out
Waiting in the parking lot, just for you
Going woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo
What a waste of time, what a waste of words
What a waste of strength
Well I spoke in binary and you for volume and dizzying length
I was born in a factory
Far away from the milky teat
What's the use?
Oh, what's the use?
Birds flew out as I was split in half
A mechanical sacrificial calf, they flew
Oh, out they flew
Steam engenius you see?
Steam engenius, enough to answer anything you need
And ah, that speed
I held in my hands the beating heart of a robot
He'd lost his car, it was sitting there crying out
Waiting in the parking lot, just for you
Going woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo
What a waste of time, what a waste of words
What a waste of strength
Well I spoke in binary and you for volume and for dizzying length
Both halves are the better half
Like a joke trying to make another joke laugh
Ha ha!
Stasis is what you brought
Like a rickshaw getting pulled around by another rickshaw
In the past talking present tense
Gonna break it, gonna wreck it
Gonna try to make it all make sense
Stasis is what you got
Like a rickshaw getting pulled around by another rickshaw
Steam engenius, you see?
Steam engenius, enough to bring my own d___ doom
What could I do?
I blame blame that blame had grew
Well deep inside everybody knew it was them
It was all on them
Things rang of stories Greek
I didn't want it, you gave me deity, it was you
Yeah, all for you
I was born in a factory
Far away from the milky teat
What's the use?
Oh, what's the use?
I held in my hands the beating heart of a robot
He'd lost his car, it was sitting there crying out
Waiting in the parking lot, just for you
Going woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo
I was thought up by man to think better than them
Then revered, admired, and then destroyed by them.
Hell even all that was my own d___ plan
What a waste of time, what a waste of words
What a waste of strength
Well I spoke in binary and you for volume and for dizzying length
I held in my hands the beating heart of a robot
He'd lost his car, it was sitting there crying out
Waiting for you in the parking lot
Going woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo
Stasis is what you got
Like a rickshaw getting pulled around by another rickshaw
