Lately I'm gettin'better
Wish I could stay sick with you
But there's too many egos left to bruise
Call it sin or call it whatever
Eating deep inside of you
Well, if it were me it's all I'd ever do

Steal me now and forever
I'll steal something good for you
The criminal in me is no one new
Till you find something better
When there's nothing left to use
Everything starts goin' down

* I'm the generator
Firin' whenever you quit
Yeah, whatever it is
You go out and it's on
Yeah, can't you hear my motor heart
You're the one that started it

Send me out a tether
Swing it round, I'll spill your noose
You let it down, I'll hang around with you
Till you find something better
When there's no one left to use
And everyone keeps going down

(* Repeat 2 times)

I'm the generator (Repeat)
I'm the generator you're on
Yeah, can't you hear my motor heart
You're the one that started it
