[Intro]
These abnormalities are corrupting the minds
And the hearts of our children, crime and violence

[Verse 1]
I'm corruptible, my mind's destructible and I'm untouchable
So come, come take me down
We'll break it all, we'll never be respectable
Tonight, gettin' technical, technical, gettin' technical

[Pre-Chorus]
And it's too late to turn away
And I'm falling and I'm falling
And it's too late to turn away

[Chorus]
Oh, can't beat the machines
(We) can't beat the machines
(We) can't beat the machines
(Can't beat the machines)
Can't beat the machines
(We) can't beat the machines
(We) can't beat the machines
(Can't beat the machines)

[Verse 2]
Now we are coming out to take you down
Now we are coming out to get you
When you are sleeping we'll be spinning you around
When you are hiding we will find you
[Pre-Chorus]
And it's too late to turn away
And I'm falling and I'm falling
And it's too late to turn away

[Chorus]
Oh, can't beat the machines
(We) can't beat the machines
(We) can't beat the machines
(Can't beat the machines)
Can't beat the machines
(We) can't beat the machines
(We) can't beat the machines
(Can't beat the machines)

[Bridge]
Deep in the night from cyberspace
They come to take all our troubles away
Out of the screen and into our dreams
God made men, but men made machine
At the end of the world, it's still gonna turn
We'll still be dancing while everything burns
Everything burns, when will we ever learn?
(Can't beat the machines)
(Can't beat the machines)
(Can't beat the machines)
(Can't beat the machines)
[Chorus]
Oh, can't beat the machines
(We) can't beat the machines
(We) can't beat the machines
(Can't beat the machines)
Can't beat the machines
(We) can't beat the machines
(We) can't beat the machines
(Can't beat the machines)

[Outro]
Oh-ooh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-ooh-oh-oh-oh (We can't beat the machines)
Oh-ooh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-ooh-oh-oh-oh (We can't beat the machines)
Oh-ooh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-ooh-oh-oh-oh (We can't beat the machines)
Oh-ooh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-ooh-oh-oh-oh (We can't beat the machines)
Oh-ooh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-ooh-oh-oh-oh (We can't beat the machines)
Oh-ooh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-ooh-oh-oh-oh (We can't beat the machines)
Ooh (We can't beat the machines)
Crime and violence
