Lyrics[edit | edit source]
I remember the first time I saw you
I couldn't believe my own eyes
You were cold to the touch
But I needed you so much in my life
Oh, you showed me a world full of wonder
Your voice held all the answers I sought
When I lost my way, you never led me astray
Or, so I thought
But, when I take a look around
And everybody's looking down
And I think they're nothing like me
And when I tried to turn you off
You just remind me you're the boss
And I cave, I'm a slave to the machine
Whoo!
You're the first thing I see every morning
Your soft glow bids me goodnight
You sing to me and in darkness
You bring me the light
Oh, you send a little chill through my body
Just to remind me you're there
If I left you behind, I would move mountains
To find you anywhere
But, when I take a look around
And everybody's looking down
And I think they're nothing like me
And when I tried to turn you off
You just remind me you're the boss
And I cave, I'm a slave to the machine
Now we're living the dream
Eyes never leaving the screen
Floating away in a stream
To the machine
Whoo!
But, when I take a look around
And everybody's looking down
And I think they're nothing like me
And when I tried to turn you off
You just remind me you're the boss
And I cave, I'm a slave to the machine
Now we're living the dream
Eyes never leaving the screen
Floating away in a stream
Oh, to the machine
Now we're living the dream
Eyes never leaving the screen
Floating away in a stream
Yeah, to the machine
Whoo!
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh
