[Verse 1]
Dm
There once was a boy, a robotic boy
A# Asus4 A
With a crank sticking out of his brain
Dm
He never performed with sadness or joy
A# Asus4 A
He was just simply programmed to sing
[Chorus]
Dm
So he sang
A# Asus4 A
So he sang
Dm
So he sang
A# Asus4 A
So he sang until one day
[Verse 2]
Dm
With no one around this robot fell down
A# Asus4 A
And the crank it broke off of his head
Dm
With the jar to his hard drive he felt all alive
A# Asus4 A
The old robot he used to be: dead
[Verse 3]
Dm
There was rage in his brain, there was pain in his frame
A# Asus4 A
There was love, there was hunger and strife
Dm
He felt lonely, rejected at times disconnected
A# Asus4 A
No answer to the meaning of life
[Chorus]
Dm
So he sang
A# Asus4 A
So he sang
Dm
So he sang
A# Asus4 A
So he sang
[Outro]
