[Verse 1]
Bm
There once was a boy, a robotic boy
G F#sus4 F#
With a crank sticking out of his brain
Bm
He never performed with sadness or joy
G F#sus4 F#
He was just simply programmed to sing
[Chorus]
Bm
So he sang
G F#sus4 F#
So he sang
Bm
So he sang
G F#sus4 F#
So he sang until one day
[Verse 2]
Bm
With no one around this robot fell down
G F#sus4 F#
And the crank it broke off of his head
Bm
With the jar to his hard drive he felt all alive
G F#sus4 F#
The old robot he used to be: dead
[Verse 3]
Bm
There was rage in his brain, there was pain in his frame
G F#sus4 F#
There was love, there was hunger and strife
Bm
He felt lonely, rejected at times disconnected
G F#sus4 F#
No answer to the meaning of life
[Chorus]
Bm
So he sang
G F#sus4 F#
So he sang
Bm
So he sang
G F#sus4 F#
So he sang
