- Not Turning Off Lyrics / with translationsShe's gone in a word and tanked up
And I can't sleep at all, I can't sleep at all
She's gone in a word, the ephedrine
Got caught half-way down, the pretty anti-ground
Don't want to miss such an american scene
And I said to myself I'm not turning off
I said to myself I'm not turning off
And I said to myself I'm not turning off
And I said to myself I'm not turning off
Oh, honey, oh, please, it's just a machine
Oh, honey, please, it's just a machine
Oh, honey, oh, please, it's just a machine
Oh, honey, oh, please, it's just a machine
There's something about, you're up late
Your can tastes like tin aluminum
There's something about, I'm not the only one
That can't sleep at all, that can't sleep at all
And I don't want to miss such an american scene
And I said to myself I'm not turning off
I said to myself I'm not turning
Well, I said to myself I'm not turning off
And I said to myself I'm not turning off
So connect, connect, connect, connect to me
Connect, connect, connect, connect to me
Oh, honey, oh, please, it's just a machine
Oh, honey, oh, please, it's just a machine
Oh, honey, oh, please, it's just a machine
Oh, honey, oh, please, it's just a machine
It's just a machine
And I can't sleep at all, I can't sleep at all
She's gone in a word, the ephedrine
Got caught half-way down, the pretty anti-ground
Don't want to miss such an american scene
And I said to myself I'm not turning off
I said to myself I'm not turning off
And I said to myself I'm not turning off
And I said to myself I'm not turning off
Oh, honey, oh, please, it's just a machine
Oh, honey, please, it's just a machine
Oh, honey, oh, please, it's just a machine
Oh, honey, oh, please, it's just a machine
There's something about, you're up late
Your can tastes like tin aluminum
That can't sleep at all, that can't sleep at all
And I don't want to miss such an american scene
And I said to myself I'm not turning off
I said to myself I'm not turning
Well, I said to myself I'm not turning off
And I said to myself I'm not turning off
So connect, connect, connect, connect to me
Connect, connect, connect, connect to me
Oh, honey, oh, please, it's just a machine
Oh, honey, oh, please, it's just a machine
Oh, honey, oh, please, it's just a machine
Oh, honey, oh, please, it's just a machine
It's just a machine
