Lyrics
I AM NOT A ROBOT
You've been acting awful tough lately
Smoking a lot of cigarettes lately
But inside, you're just a little baby
It's okay to say you've got a weak spot
You don't always have to be on top
Better to be hated than loved, loved, loved for what you're not
You're vulnerable, you're vulnerable
You are not a robot
You're loveable, so loveable
But you're just trouble
Guess what? I'm not a robot, a robot
Guess what? I'm not a robot, a robot
You've been hanging with the unloved kids
Who you never really liked and you never trusted
But you are so magnetic, you pick up all the pins
Never committing to anything
You don't pick up the phone when it ring, ring, rings
Don't be so pathetic, just open up and sing
I'm vulnerable, I'm vulnerable
I am not a robot
You're loveable, so loveable
But you're just trouble
Guess what? I'm not a robot, a robot
Guess what? I'm not a robot, a robot
Can you teach me how to feel real?
Can you turn my power off?
And let the drum beat drop
Guess what? I'm not a robot
Guess what? I'm not a robot
Guess what? I'm not a robot, a robot
Guess what? I'm not a robot, a robot
Guess what? I'm not a robot, a robot
Guess what? I'm not a robot, a robot
MOWGLI'S ROAD
Cuckoo
Ten silver spoons coming after me
One life with one dream on repeat
I'll escape if I try hard enough
Till King of the Jungle calls my bluff
Oh Lord
I have been sold
That I must take the unforsaken road
There's a fork in the road
I'll do as as I am told
And I don't know, don't know, don't know, don't know
Who I want to be
Cuckoo
You say Y-E-S to everything
Will that guarantee you a win?
Do you think you will be good enough
To love others and to be loved?
Oh Lord
Now I can see
The cutlery will keep on chasing me (forsaken road)
There's a fork in the road
I'll do as as I am told
And I don't know, don't know, don't know, don't know
Who I want to be
We are the spoons, metal-ly mean
We scooped our way into your dreams
To knock the knives out bloody cold
And lead you down the unforsaken road
There's a fork in the road
I'll do as as I am told
And I don't know, don't know, don't know, don't know
Who I want to be
HOLLYWOOD
American dream is the american queen
American queen is the american dream
She is a polish girl in america
tall, tanned hot blonde called Anya
I asked her "Why would you want to be a Hollywood wife?"
"Because I don't wanna end up living in a dive on Vine"
Air hostesses doing gossip magazine crosswords
on a flight to old L.A.
39 years old with a mile-high sheen
trying to stimulate a mind
that is slowly starting to decay
Hollywood infected your brain
You wanted kissing in the rain
Living in a movie scene
Puking American dreams
I'm obsessed with the mess that's America
I'm obsessed with the mess that's America
A fat security making plays for me
soon as I touch down in old LA
He says "OH MY GOD, YOU LOOK JUST SHAKIRA
NO, NO! YOU'RE CATHERINE ZETA!"
"Actually, my name's Marina"
Your mind is just like mine
All filled up with things benign
you're looking for the golden light
Hollywood infected your brain
You wanted kissing in the rain
Living in a movie scene
Puking American dreams
I'm obsessed with the mess that's America
I'm obsessed with the mess that's America
American dream is the american queen
American queen is the american dream
OH NO!
dont do love
donít do friends
i'm only after success
dont need a relationship
i'll never soften my grip
dont want cash, dont want card
want it fast, want it hard
dont need money, dont need fame
i just want to make a change
i just want to change x 5
i know exactly what i want and who i want be
i know exactly why i walk and talk like a machine
i'm now becoming my own self-fulfilled prophecy
oh! oh no! oh no! oh no oh!
one track mind
one track heart
if i fail i'll fall apart
maybe it is all a test
cause i feel like i'm the worst
so i always act like i'm the best
if you are not very careful
your possessions will possess you
tv taught me how to feel
now real life has no appeal
it has no appeal x 5
i know exactly what i want and who i want be
i know exactly why i walk and talk like a machine
i'm now becoming my own self-fulfilled prophecy
oh! oh no! oh no! oh no oh!
i'm gonna live, i'm gonna fly
i'm gonna fail, i'm gonna die
i'm gonna live, i'm gonna fly
i'm gonna fail, gonna die, die, die, die
i know exactly what i want and who i want be
i know exactly why i walk and talk like a machine
i'm now becoming my own self-fulfilled prophecy
oh! oh no! oh no! oh no oh!
SHAMPAIN
lay dagger dead inside a lonely bed
trying to hide the hole inside my head
watching the stars slide down to reach their end
cause sleep is not my friend
drinking shampain to forget yesterday
cause i remember the way, the way, the way
it ended the day, the day, the day, the day
that i walked away, away, away, away
drinking shampain
made by the angel who goes by the name
of glittering gabriel
drinking shampain
made of an angels tears and pain
now i feel celestial
elderly stars slide down the lonely sky
slipping away to find a place to die
i wonder when the night will reach its end
cause sleep is not my friend
drinking shampain meant for a wedding
toast to the bride, a fairytale ending
drinking shampain, a bottle to myself
savour the taste of fabricated wealth
drinking shampain
made by the angel who goes by the name
of glittering gabriel
drinking shampain
made of an angels tears and pain
now i feel celestial
celestial x 4
drinking shampain
made by the angel who goes by the name
of glittering gabriel
drinking shampain
made of an angel's tears and pain
now i feel celestial
