Lyrics
yeah, yeah…
breathe in breathe out
breathe in breathe out
breathe in
breathe in breathe out
breathe in breathe out
breathe in
tied to a wheel fingers gotta feel
bleedin’ through a tourniquet smile
i spin on a whim i slide to the right
i felt you like an electric light
for our love
for our fear
for our rise against the years and years and years
got a machinehead
it’s better than the rest
green to the red machinehead
got a machinehead
it’s better than the rest
green to the red
and i walk from my machine
oh, i walk from my machine, yeah
breathe in breathe out
breathe in breathe out
breathe in
deaf dumb and thirty
starting to deserve this
leaning on my conscience wall
blood is like wine
unconscious all the time
if i had it all again
i’d change it all
got a machinehead
it’s better than the rest
green to red machinehead
got a machinehead
it’s better than the rest
green to red, yeah
and i walk from my machine
i walk from my machine
(spoken) i’ve seen the best minds of my generation, they are starving, hysterical, and naked…
breathe in breathe out
breathe in breathe out
breathe in, breathe in, breathe in
got a machinehead
it’s better than the rest
green to red machinehead
got a machinehead
it’s better than the rest
green to red, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
better than the rest
better than the rest
machinehead, head, head, head, head, head
and i walk from my machine
and i walk from my machine
About The Song
wtf does that word mean?:
whim [n.] a capricious or eccentric and often sudden idea or turn of the mind
Band Thoughts:
“maximum velocity.”- Robin
“All attitude.”- Dave
“ego”- Gavin
“‘Machinehead,’ to me, has always just been a bit of a punk song–just hit all the right beats, with a little bit of skippiness and few inside strokes, so it’s not just straight snare on 2 and 4. Move it around a little bit, but generally keep it quite punky.” -Robin
Staff Thoughts:
“It’s a great driving song. You get to run everyone off the road and not feel bad about it.”- Laura
“This riff is just infamous, isn’t it? I wish Bush would get back to making more rockin’ jams like that..”-Brandyn
