The STIUTK Algorithm


"Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
But had me believing it was always something that I'd done
But I don't wanna live that way
Reading into every word you say
You said that you could let it go
And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know"

Wait a minute! Gotye's "Somebody That I Used to Know" may be a non-formulaic song, but it seems to be algorithmic indeed...

Here it is, the STIUTK algorithm (simplified version):
