[Verse 1]

A malfunction to the machine

She chews its screws of sanity

Losing parts of human seed

As she lusts for electricity


[Verse 2]

Plastic attitude, gray emotions

Wear your cables and join with me

Boring lives in entropy

Incorporeal surgery


[Verse 3]

Environmental therapy

For the genes that threat security

A new breed of mass murderers

Instructed from their parents to do the task


[Pre-Chorus]

Mechanical, our whore Babylon

Mechanical, our whore Babylon


[Chorus]

The old hag looks so young

In her dress of silicon

A jungle in her heart

Made from concrete, glass and metal


[Post-Chorus]

Mechanical, our whore Babylon

Mechanical, our whore Babylon


[Verse 4]

Kiss of methadone

Is a drug that steals control

She wants her clockwork toy

Disconnected from the physical


[Verse 5]

Plastic attitude, gray emotions

Wear your cables and join with me

Boring lives in entropy

Incorporeal surgery


[Pre-Chorus]

Mechanical, our whore Babylon

Mechanical, our whore Babylon


[Chorus]

The old hag looks so young

In her dress of silicon

A jungle in her heart

Made from concrete, glass and metal


[Post-Chorus]

Mechanical, our whore Babylon

Mechanical, our whore Babylon
