[Verse 1]
Gm
There once was a boy, a robotic boy
D# Dsus4 D
With a crank sticking out of his brain
Gm
He never performed with sadness or joy
D# Dsus4 D
He was just simply programmed to sing
[Chorus]
Gm
So he sang
D# Dsus4 D
So he sang
Gm
So he sang
D# Dsus4 D
So he sang until one day
[Verse 2]
Gm
With no one around this robot fell down
D# Dsus4 D
And the crank it broke off of his head
Gm
With the jar to his hard drive he felt all alive
D# Dsus4 D
The old robot he used to be: dead
[Verse 3]
Gm
There was rage in his brain, there was pain in his frame
D# Dsus4 D
There was love, there was hunger and strife
Gm
He felt lonely, rejected at times disconnected
D# Dsus4 D
No answer to the meaning of life
[Chorus]
Gm
So he sang
D# Dsus4 D
So he sang
Gm
So he sang
D# Dsus4 D
So he sang
