Lyrics Amanda Lear

Amanda Lear

Lili Marlen

Intellectually you are superior

But internally

You're a transistor

Your ticking brain- which could explain

The whys' and whens' l ask in vain

Is a computerised calculator

You're so functional

I feel primitive

So artificial

You're insensitive

Your intellect might be perfect

But heaven's sake I feel neglected -

I want a man

Not a machine

When we met I thought

There is quality

He's the man I want

Yes, he is for me

But you did it all too mechanically

As if it was just technicality

On You argue with me systematically

Your logice drives me to insanity

You say we should meet intelligently

Because all the rest is biology

Intellectually you are superior

But internally

You're a transistor

Your punctuality and your lack of ardour

Inflicts me a nervous disorder

Emotionally you're a computer

When we met I thought

There is quality

He's the man I want

Yes, he is for me

But you did it all too mechanically

As if it was just technicality

You argue with me systematically

Your logic drives me to insanity

You say we should meet intellectually

Because all the rest is biology

To stir my adrenalin

I want a man not a machine

To stir my adrenalin

I want a man not a machine

To stir my adrenalin

I want a man not a machine

To stir my adrenalin

I want a man not a machine

Not a machine, not a machine
