[Verse 1] Hes the latest superhero with powers so profound He can leap a dotted line in just a single bound I know you must have seen him in the books and magazines Hes the quintessential mindless modern epicene [Chorus] His life is meaningful Because he gets things done Bang! Bang! Bang, bang, hes dead Bang, bang, hes dead Chalk up another triumph for our hero, the Automatic Man [Verse 2] Its true you must have met him, hes your best friend and your foe His opinions are determined by the status quo A true creature of habit, he smokes three packs a day When he has an original thought, he forgets it right away Hes the Automatic Man [Chorus] Hes a paradigm of carefree living Hes our mentor, disturb him if you can Hes the answer if your peace of mind is lacking Hes our savior, he is the common man [Outro] Oh, and if you are troubled by the daily bump and grind Then take another look around, and brother, you will find The Automatic Man
he, bang, automatic, man, epicene
