Steam Engenius Lyrics

Artist: Modest Mouse
Album: We Were Dead Before The Ship Even Sank

I was born in the factory
Far away from the milk and teat
What's the use?
Oh, what's the use?

You cheered as I was split in half
A mechanical, sacrificial calf for you
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 acted once right, but naturally it wasn't hatching love
Though not my fault, no

I held my hands, the beating heart of a robot
He left his car, it's sitting there burning now, waiting in the parking lot, just for you
What a waste of time, what a waste of words, what a waste of strength
But I suppose that by now you put forth all your effort, dizzy and late

I was born in a factory
Far away from the milk and teat
What's the use?
Oh, what's the use

birds flew out as I was split in half
A mechanical, sacrificial calf that flew
Oh, off they flew

Steam engenius you see?
Steam engenius enough to answer anything you need
And I like speed

I held my hands, the beating heart of a robot
He left his car, it's sitting there burning now, waiting in the parking lot, all all for you
What a waste of time, what a waste of words, what a waste of strength
But I suppose that by now you put forth all your effort, dizzy and late
[I was born in the factory]

Both halves saw men in half ,like a joke trying to make another joke laugh
Ha ha

Stasis is what you got, like a rickshaw getting pulled around by another rickshaw, rickshaw

In the past talking present tense
Gonna break it, gonna wreck, 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 damn doom
What could I do?

I've been blamed then blamed the groom
While deep inside everybody knew it was them
It's all on them

Things rain in 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 milk and tea
What's the use?
Oh, what's the use?

I held my hands, the beating heart of a robot
He left his car, it's sitting there burning now, waiting in the parking lot, just just for you
I'll start up the man and they'll think that I'm dead and then rip into my reared end and start jumping...
You can't hand me the devices ??? I didn't even know that was my own damn plan

Well what a waste of time, waste of words, a waste of breath
But I suppose that by now you put forth all your effort, couldn't anyway

I held my hands, the beating heart of a robot
He left his car, he's sitting there crying out, waiting in the parking lot, going whoo-hoo

Stasis is what you got, like a rickshaw getting pulled around by another rickshaw
