Automatic Lyrics
Show me a house with a window
One with a garage and five bedrooms
Form me a line so I can judge you
Call me a name if you want to
Show me a way to the exit
Look at my hands, see them shaking
Tell me apart from my shadow
Find me a line for this shadow
You're so automatic
You're so automatic
Keep off the tracks, ahh-ah
Keep holding back
Space and time, frozen
Distance is behind
One with a garage and five bedrooms
Form me a line so I can judge you
Call me a name if you want to
Look at my hands, see them shaking
Tell me apart from my shadow
Find me a line for this shadow
You're so automatic
Keep off the tracks, ahh-ah
Keep holding back
Distance is behind

I think this song is about a guy how is in a reltaionship with someone whom is all too predicted. But she isn't doing anything worng so he can't blame her for anything and leave her.
he's cold inside. but she's even colder. and he can see their whole life ahead of him laid out in a line, knowing automatically the choices he has to make, and knwoing that he will make them. there is no choice. this is the way the world works.
yup. i agree. and he's looking for a way out of it. he's desperate to escape. and i love how he says garage with his sexy british-ness
