Walk out back I always found you head inside an engine

With your rag pushed into your back pocket

Hand me ratchet pass me socket

I pretend to be taken by resistors and cables

Filters, carburetors, and fuel injection ratios

That's when you were happy

Elbow on the panel

Smiling out the window

Listening to the gravel

She tells me like I need reminding

Things round here been slowly dying

I run out to my haven

Getting away from the fuss and fightin

Don’t come around here complaining

About surfacе conversation

Struggling with emotion

And bad communication

That's when you wеre happy

Elbow on the panel

Smiling out the window

Listening to the gravel

You're listening but do you hear the machine?

All that talk of global warming

Electric is the future coming

They’re going to outlaw V8 engine

Carburetor, fuel injection

And you won't understand them

And they'll leave you behind

Now you could understand me

But you would have to try

That's when you were happy

Elbow on the panel

Smiling out the window

Listening to the gravel

You're listening but do you hear the machine?
