Mechanical Animals

Marylin Manson

We were neurophobic and perfect


the day that we lost our souls


machines that wished they were human


If they cry they will rust


And I was a hand grenade


That never stopped exploding


You were automatic and as hollow as the "o" in god


I am never gonna be the one for you


I am never gonna save the world from you


But they'll never be good for you


Or bad to you


They'll never be anything


Anything at all


You were my mechanical bride


You were phenobarbidoll


A manniqueen of depression


With the face of a dead star


And I was a hand grenade


That never stopped exploding


You were automatic and as hollow as the "o" in god


I am never gonna be the one for you (chorus repeat)


This isn't me I'm not mechanical


I'm just a boy playing the suicide king
