[Verse 1]
Cm
There once was a boy, a robotic boy
G# Gsus4 G
With a crank sticking out of his brain
Cm
He never performed with sadness or joy
G# Gsus4 G
He was just simply programmed to sing
[Chorus]
Cm
So he sang
G# Gsus4 G
So he sang
Cm
So he sang
G# Gsus4 G
So he sang until one day
[Verse 2]
Cm
With no one around this robot fell down
G# Gsus4 G
And the crank it broke off of his head
Cm
With the jar to his hard drive he felt all alive
G# Gsus4 G
The old robot he used to be: dead
[Verse 3]
Cm
There was rage in his brain, there was pain in his frame
G# Gsus4 G
There was love, there was hunger and strife
Cm
He felt lonely, rejected at times disconnected
G# Gsus4 G
No answer to the meaning of life
[Chorus]
Cm
So he sang
G# Gsus4 G
So he sang
Cm
So he sang
G# Gsus4 G
So he sang
