Auto-Happy - Slow Runner

Don’t smile at me*

Don’t smile at me

I’m trying to be dark and brooding

You rattle me

You rattle me

The needle won’t stop moving

You make me auto-happy

You make me sing to the houseplants

You make me sing to the houseplants

Lovingly

Auto-happy

You make me sing to the houseplants

You make me sing to the house

It’s animal

Animal

Impractical but fast

And painless

Electrical

Mechanical

You twist the wires in my chest

You make me auto-happy

You make me sing to the houseplants

You make me sing to the houseplants

Lovingly

Auto-happy

You make me sing to the houseplants

You make me sing to the house

I want a life, a real life

I want to get it right, get it right

You make me sing to the houseplants…
