Lyrics

You had one bad break now you're broken hearted
I hit rock bottom and I'm just getting started
You have the whole world in your hands and you're not having fun yet
I've lived more than half a life and I'm not done yet
Call me a has been, old school, obsolete, outdated
but I'm going full speed ahead baby 'til I make it
We get one chance and we better not blow it
You gotta run to keep up with me and I think you know it
Don't count me out
'cause I'm ready now
I'm gonna show you how..so

Turn me on - I'm a part of the big machine
Turn me on - I'm a part of the big machine
Turn me on - I'm a part of the big machine
Turn me on - I'm a part of the big machine

Now I'm throwing a party and you're all invited
'cause I got chewed up and spit out and I survived it
You can play the victim but you wrote the screenplay
and you are the only one who can change the scene today

So let's take out the garbage and clean up
strike a pose and get ready for your close up
Life is too short to waste thinking it's to late for you
This is the moment that was made for you
Don't drop out
get ready now
I'm gonna show you how..so

Turn me on - I'm a part of the big machine
Turn me on - I'm a part of the big machine
Turn me on - I'm a part of the big machine
Turn me on - I'm a part of the big machine
Turn me on - I'm a part of the big machine
Turn me on - I'm a part of the big machine
Turn me on - I'm a part of the big machine
Turn me on - I'm a part of the
The Big Machine
