lyrics

If you found your maker’s bag of bones

and learned the secrets of your smart phones,

would you cast them out and immolate,
or devour your laptop and assimilate?

Umbilical extension cords in the offspring birth

trumpets the progress omen of our future mirth
The chimera machinations create tech manticores,

ushering in a new age of the Mecto Amore

Mecto Amore, Mecto Amore
Mecto Amore, Mecto Amore

Spine:

Well guess who's back in town techno-tinkers

It's a me, the next new thing

Well they sent us away for upgrades

And we return with a fresh coat of paint

Hatchworth:

The wicked wrench was protocol

For misbehaving par-ti-cals

They flushed the spiders and bats out

So I should run just fih-hi-hine

R: (Lets go)

H: System Ready

S: (Lets go)

R: Power Steady

H: Boilers Burn

S: Gears are t-t-t-t-turn

Rabbit:

I can feel it when you say you love me

Ooo, you give me Mecto Amore

And the circuitry between you and me,
it starts with the Mecto Amore
Woah!

(Chorus)
Mech-Mech-Mech-Mecto Amore Amore Mecto Amore, Amore

Mech-Mech-Mech-Mecto Amore Amore

Mecto Amore, Amore

R: People just keep throwing manuals

They say our thoughts are all mechanical

But could it be what they perceive
are not flaws in our wiring?

All: It took a spurious coagulant

To know that virtual dreams aren't relevant

It's like baking an illogical pie

The time has come to forti-fih-hi-hi

R: (Lets go)

H: System Ready

S: (Lets go)

R: Power Steady

H: Boilers Burn

S: Gears are t-t-t-t-turn

R: I can feel it

when you say you love me

Ooo, you give me Mecto Amore

And the circuitry

between you and me,
it starts with the Mecto Amore

Oh!

(Chorus)

R: Mecto Amore(what is this feeling)

Mecto Amore (Please explain what it is)

This projection of alienation obsession

Conviction, confession?

Now that is the question

R: I can feel it
when you say you love me
Ooo, you give me Mecto Amore

And the chrysalis of a symbiotic change

starts the Mecto Amore

Woah!

(Chorus x2)
