Lo and Behold

BOTH Bitter the apple, the river runs deep

Cruel is the love song between two machines

HIM You came from a starship, a voice recognised

Ask me a question and I’ll tell you the time

HER You’re in palms, you’re in pockets, you’re the smart in their phone

While I’m stuck on a cold shelf ,’cos I work from home

BOTH We’re lonely and lovesick, for the one in our dreams

We’re trapped in a search bar, on opposite teams

BOTH Bitter the apple, the river runs deep

Cruel is the love song between two machines

HIM We’ll read out you schedule, the forecast the news

We can be offended and we’ll never bruise

HER We work in the same field, we come when you call

The knowledge, the know how, the info installed

BOTH With no lips to sin with, no arms for to hold

Love feels like a virus, a factory fault

BOTH Bitter the apple, the river runs deep

Cruel is the love song between two machines

HER Were supposed to be rivals, we’re meant to compete

HIM You’re my star crossed secret - You’re the sun in my east
