The Flaming Lips – My Mechanical Friend lyrics

I lost my one and only friend
They say he's never coming back again
(I) hold on the hoe while I pull him from the grave
They say he's dead and gone and can't be saved

(Oh oh oh oh oh)

Lock the door and count to five
Metal along metal, lightning in a bottle

Oh, its alive - my mechanical friend (my mechanical friend)
I'll cut you up and I will stitch you up again
My mechanical friend (my mechanical friend)
I'll bring you back to life - I'm with you 'till the end

(Your) my mechanical friend (my mechanical friend)
My mechanical friend (my mechanical friend)

I want you back with me where you belong
I will let you wander - flesh and bone

(Oh oh oh oh oh)

Lock the door and count to five
Metal along metal, lightning in a bottle

My mechanical friend (my mechanical friend)
I'll cut you up and I will stitch you up again
My mechanical friend (my mechanical friend)
I'll bring you back to life - I'm with you 'till the end

(Your) my mechanical friend (my mechanical friend)
My mechanical friend (my mechanical friend)

I can see you shadow
Coming back to life

My mechanical friend (my mechanical friend)
I'll cut you up and I will stitch you up again
My mechanical friend (my mechanical friend)
I'll bring you back to life - I'm with you 'till the end

(Your) my mechanical friend (my mechanical friend)
My mechanical friend (my mechanical friend)
