About This Track

'Automatic' by Weezer is a track from 'Weezer (The Red Album)', released in 2008. The lyrics frame love as something enormous and difficult to convey, working through images of delivery and connection, then turning to a more certain register in the chorus, with the line “Hey, it’s automatic when you know it”. The overall mood is caught between uncertainty and resolution, as the singer weighs whether readiness can make feeling simpler to express.

"Automatic" is a track by Weezer, from the album Weezer (The Red Album), released 3rd June 2008. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 19 articles about Weezer.

Lyrics

Automatic

[Verse 1]

How am I going to

Deliver you a mountain size of love?

How do oceans connected by a straw

Get something through?

I might need some time to remember

Need some time to remember

[Chorus]

Hey, it's automatic when you know it

Hey, it's automatic when you feel it

[Verse 2]

When do I lay down

And get to see the world inside your eyes?

How can I reach out

And hold on to the joy you've got inside?

[Chorus]

Hey, it's automatic when you know it

Hey, it's automatic when you feel it

[Bridge]

I got some

But I wanna feel it every hour

'Cause I want to give it to you

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

Hey, it's automatic when you know it

Hey, it's automatic when you feel it

[Outro]

Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh
