Intro 1

Verse 1
Em 
Living  (E minor) in a world where
everybody's ga-ga
Shakin Shakin it faking it like
they're all a Yc Yc
Find myself a girl with a name like Zsa Zsa
Pack up all my shit and move
it down to Baja
If there's more to life than money,
shelter, food, sex
I gotta get it straight in my Cerebral
cortex
Everybody's got the usual defects
Chalk it all up to automatic reflex

Verse 2

Yeah, its automatic, yeah, its automatic,

baby don't be static

everybody's got one

Yeah, its problematic you can lock it in the attic,

but its automatic I know it's a hot one

Verse 3
Em 
 (E minor) Seems to me the rules
are getting stranger
Maybe emancipations in danger
Every coalition is a new game changer
They all claim it's like Jesus-in-a-manger
I I I I wanna speak free, love free,
everyone to thrive
I don't really care if you're
software or hard drive
No time to sit still,
bow out or shuck and jive
Get up stand up nobody's
getting out alive

Everything I think and do's
set by my DNc
cctions are automatic reflex foreplay

Verse 7
Em 
 (E minor) 
Living in a world of
hypersensitivity
Everywhere I look everybody
wants validity
Walking on eggshells state
my proclivity
Somebody some where'll want
to take a shot at me
Whether I believe in God, love or hot sex
Gotta be careful cos all this
shit is complex
Whether I say its live or Memorex

Em
