Automatic Line Songtext
von Albert Hammond, Jr.

There′s an automatic
Line we use
It's a problematic
Thing we do
We don′t talk about it
We just move
I'm on automatic
How 'bout you

There′s an automatic
Line we use
′Cause it's too dramatic
The things we do
We′re so diplomatic
The lies we use
I'm on automatic
How ′bout you


Your ancestors are more than your brothers
(It's an automatic line)
We see the same things (It′s an automatic line)
In each other

So sweet
The last dance
I can't
Look away
Watch you
Hourglasses
Sometimes
It's ok
There′s an automatic
Line we use
′Cause it's too dramatic
The things we do
We′re so diplomatic
The lies we use
I'm on automatic
How ′bout you


Why don't you listen to your mother
(It′s an automatic line)
We see the same things (It's an automatic line)
In each other

So sweet
The last dance
I can't
Look away
Watch you
Hourglasses
Sometimes
It′s ok

Hey hey
Yeah yeah

So sweet
The last dance
I can′t
Look away
Watch you
Hourglasses
Sometimes
It's ok

Your quality
A part of me
Our solitude
A proven use
The money shot
Was never found
Our enemies
Now underground
