Convex Model - Tin Man Lyrics

Tin man starts again
Sounding like a metal can
Auto-moves make it last
Repelling shadows from the past
Plans, dreams put on hold
Another dropout of this world
Free will that he craved
Toasted in the microwave

Oh it's rude to stare
Really? Nothing to declare?
Are you one of those
The system's trying to expose?
Don't you already know
You have to go with the flow?
Don't speak fake a smile
Always keep a low profile

But Tin man laughs and says
I'd rather do my rusty dance
My rusty dance, my rusty dance
I knew it all in advance

Eat, sleep, go to work
Warning signs of a stroke
Calm down, don't react
This is life, it's a fact
Ease and consumerism
Cover and defeat your scream
Stay home, nice and warm
Still refusing to conform?

Feeling safe and sound
In a bit you will come round
These ideas that you had
Will sleep tight in your bed
This is common sense
No use building up a fence
You need to integrate
No more worries after eight

But Tin man laughs and says
I'd rather do my rusty dance
My rusty dance, my rusty dance
I knew it all in advance
