Listen & view Chris Butler - The Devil Glitch lyrics & tabs

Sometimes you can fix something by just being a prick
Winning by intimidation

Sometimes you can fix something by just lifting your skirt
It's the ultimate distraction

I poke button
I want action
Let's hear some gears and see some smoke
No dilly-dally
Move your heiny
This is the age of "go for broke"

Sometimes you can fix something by just kissing some ass
If you don't mind humiliation

Sometimes you can fix something by just smoking a pipe
Academic contemplation

So pathetic
No mechanic
No steady eye, no magic touch
No screwdriver
Ball-peen hammer
And Mr. Fix-it's gone to lunch

Not personal?
Yeah it's personal
What did I ever do to you?
No crap from
Contraptions
Just do what I tell you to do

Sometimes you can fix something by just blaming your mom
Everybody loves a victim

Sometimes you can fix something by just cracking a joke
Humor is greasy lubrication

Sometimes you can fix something by just cooking the books
Wealth is all about perception

Sometimes you can fix something by just smoking a joint
Stoner free association

Broke down, lifeless
Junkyard worthless
No tweezer Jesus in the house
So desperate
So dependent
Pay any price to dope it out

I want genius
I wanna suss
The perfect kluge, the devil glitch
Oh, hosanna
Socket messiah
The only Jesus worth a shit

Sometimes you can fix something by just building a ramp
If you have that inclination

Sometimes you can fix something by just sitting around
Solutions come from relaxation

Sometimes you can fix something by just blowing it up
The world reacts to provocation

Sometimes you can fix something by just takin' it slow
Our culture loves procrastination

Sometimes you can fix something by just hurrying up
We worship instant solutions

Sometimes you can fix something by just looking away
Zen buddhist inattention

Sometimes you can fix something with just a mistake
Don't get too hung-up on perfection

Sometimes you can fix something by just doing it right
Craftsmanship demands precision

Sometimes you can fix something with total control
Aim plan for global domination

Sometimes you can fix something by just playing along
Give 'em enough rope to hang 'em

Sometimes you can fix something by working like hell
That will not hurt your reputation

Sometimes you can fix something by not working too hard
Burn-out is a real problem

Sometimes you can fix something by just having faith
Sometimes miracles can happen

Sometimes you can fix something by just saying a prayer
Wait for divine intervention

Sometimes you can fix something by just trusting your luck
Roll them bones and see what happens

Sometimes you can fix something by just being a cheat
Mastermind the final outcome

Sometimes you can fix something by just being tough
You gotta learn to take rejection

Sometimes you can fix something by just being scared
Heros never seem to live long

Sometimes you can fix something by just taking a class
Learn new techniques, new information

Sometimes you can fix something by just building a wall
There's such a thing as too much freedom

Learn to live within restrictions

Don't let 'em squish your self-expression

Sometimes you can fix something by just shutting up
Let someone smarter do the talking

But wait till next season

Wear away the opposition

Pave it with the best intentions

Exorcize your deepest demons

Take an intractable position

Sometimes you can fix something by just saying yes
If they can meet all your conditions

Make 'em question what they're seeing

Sometimes you can fix something by just changing your mind
There's nothing wrong with indecision

Hunker down for the duration

Tie him up in litigation
