You're A Woman, I'm A Machine

You're A Woman, I'm A Machine

Verse 1

You're a woman, I'm a machine

I'm different in more ways than you realize

I build and destroy

As you wait on the sidelines

This is who I am

Who I'm meant to be

I won't act the way that you want me to

Verse 2

At my behest, lands are cultivated and transformed

Empires are built

They rise and they fall

Connections are established through me

Ideas are churned out at high speed

Bridge

Neither inferior or superior

I offer brains and brawns

With that combination, power is generated

I have few luxuries and many responsibilities

The world rest on my shoulders

And I can't ignore that fact

Chorus

I seek adventure

There's a need to expand my mind

A detox up in the mountains will purify me

I collect and assemble complex pieces of the world

Societies benefit and suffer from my legacy

History is shaped by me

You're a woman, I'm a machine

Outro

You're a woman, I'm a machine

I build and destroy

This is who I am

I won't act the way that you want me to

You're a woman, I'm a machine
