Automatic Lyrics by Dawn Richard

Armor On

2012

[Verse 1]
How'd I get stuck livin' like this?
Picture fucking perfect Stepford Wife
A symbol to fit your design
There used to be a heart in here
Tell me how could anything survive
Walls caved in instead (oh oh oh oh)

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Like a tin man, I played the part, I waged my heart
I feel so artificial when I'm lovin' you, I can't, I can't
'Cause I'm not the kinda bitch that's gonna let you go and do that

[Chorus]
Sorry if you think, if you think I'm automatic (I'm sorry that)
Fuckin' with the wrong toy, no batteries included (Sorry that you)
Tryna turn me on 'cause you think I'm operatic (Tryna turn me on)
Treat me like a droid 'cause you think I'm automatic (Oh-oh)
Damn droid 'cause you think I'm automatic
Play me like a toy 'cause you think I'm automatic (Automatic babe)
Auto-automatic 'cause you think I'm automatic (I'm no automatic)
Auto-automatic 'cause you think I'm automatic yeah (Uh-huh)

[Verse 2]
You call me your prized possession
Show me off like I'm your trophy case
Show me to do what you say (Oh oh)
I let you fuck up my vision
With a world thin as a coat of paint
You had my heart all squared away (Oh oh)

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Boy, you don't love her
Turn my heart into your worse nightmare (Shut me down)
Can't with your program (Switch me off)
I wanna be human, yeah
I cannot give anything to recognize my own skin
'Cause a cold touch won't forget
System overloaded 'cause I'm not able to feel that

[Chorus]
Sorry if you think, if you think I'm automatic (Sorry that you)
Fuckin' with the wrong toy, no batteries included (Fucking with the wrong chick)
Tryna turn me on 'cause you think I'm operatic (Oh, you tryna turn me on, oh)
Treat me like a droid 'cause you think I'm automatic
Damn droid 'cause you think I'm automatic (I ain't automatic)
Play me like a toy 'cause you think I'm automatic (I ain't automatic)
Auto-automatic 'cause you think I'm automatic (Automatic)
Auto-automatic 'cause you think I'm automatic yeah (Oh oh, sorry)

Sorry if you think, if you think I'm automatic (If you think)
Fuckin' with the wrong toy, no batteries included (Tryna fuck with me)
Tryna turn me on 'cause you think I'm operatic (Tryna turn me on)
Treat me like a droid 'cause you think I'm automatic (Oh-oh)
Damn droid 'cause you think I'm automatic (I ain't automatic, uh-huh)
Play me like a toy 'cause you think I'm automatic (I ain't automatic, uh-huh)
Auto-automatic 'cause you think I'm automatic (I ain't automatic, uh-huh)
Auto-automatic 'cause you think I'm automatic yeah (I ain't automatic, uh-huh)

[Bridge]
Trade in this armor for a piece of reality
'Cause under this metallic girl is a human being
Won't be your droid no more, boy, fuck your technology
I'm done now, I'm shorting out
'Cause I'm not the kinda chick that's gonna let you go and do that

[Chorus]
Sorry if you think, if you think I'm automatic (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Fuckin' with the wrong toy, no batteries included
Tryna turn me on 'cause you think I'm operatic (Sorry if you think)
Treat me like a droid 'cause you think I'm automatic (I ain't that chick)
Damn droid 'cause you think I'm automatic (No, don't try to turn me on)
Play me like a toy 'cause you think I'm automatic (I don't play that shit)
Auto-automatic 'cause you think I'm automatic (Oh no)
Auto-automatic 'cause you think I'm automatic yeah (I ain't automatic)

Sorry if you think, if you think I'm automatic (Listen, I don't give a fuck about you)
Fuckin' with the wrong toy, no batteries included (I'ma a do me, you gone do you)
Tryna turn me on 'cause you think I'm operatic (I ain't automatic so let a bitch through)
Treat me like a droid 'cause you think I'm automatic (So let a bitch through)
Damn droid 'cause you think I'm automatic (Uh uh, uh uh)
Play me like a toy 'cause you think I'm automatic (Uh uh, uh uh)
Auto-automatic 'cause you think I'm automatic (Automatic, automatic)
Auto-automatic 'cause you think I'm automatic yeah (Automatic, oh yeah)
