Originally released on the album `Build a Harbour Immediately' on Wise Blood Industries, August 2011.

lyrics

Shake your hips
and start dancing
like you're born again
you'll never want it
you've never had it
like that

In the midst,
in the grips of a hurricane
You'll always crave it
you'll always play it
like that

Give me static!
`cause girl, I'm automatic
and someday something bigger
will just blow-up
on the dashboard
with a busted hubcap
the wheel spins out of motion
It's time we stepped up
to raise hands!

Wipe the grit from
the needle on the phonograph
You'll always have it
you'll always carry like that
Force my face into
the crotch of the monograph
You'll never have it
You shouldn't brag
about that

Give me static!
`cause girl, I'm automatic
and someday something bigger
will just blow-up
on the dashboard
with a busted hubcap
the wheel spins out of motion
It's time we stepped up
to raise hands!

Shake your hips
and start dancing
like you're born again
you'll never want it
you've never had it
like that

In the midst,
in the grips of a hurricane
You'll always crave it
you'll always play it
like that

Give me static!
`cause girl, I'm automatic
and someday something bigger
will just blow-up
on the dashboard
with a busted hubcap
the wheel spins out of motion
It's time we stepped up
to raise hands!
