Song Lyrics

Most people will never understand us baby
Just because you’re not like the other girls, doesn’t mean there’s anything wrong with you
It doesn’t matter what you’re made of or where you come from
All that matters is that you belong to me now

Well it all started off when i was a little boy
I never got along with the kids in my class, so i kept to myself and i played with my toys
Because i was the kind of little dude the girls wouldn’t talk to
I couldn’t make them laugh
I didn’t have money
I didn’t have all the other things that they wanted
I was more concerned with the ways of the world
Or a way that i could find me a girl
I can make her on my own any way that i like

Both sweet and cute and only wanted to be with me
Someone that could never turn me down
Someone I could love that will never ever ever say no to me, you know?
Because rejection really hurts
21 years all alone and i feel like a grumpy motherfucker being nursed

But back to my girl
I made her out of nuts and bolts and gears and a pump a remote
I was busy disconnecting then connecting all the wires that were ruining my vibes at the time
I never got in trouble but i had a troubled mind
She’s alive! She’s alive!
Is what I shouted when I booted up her hard drive
And if you can’t see inside, I bet you can’t tell the difference
So what’s it to you if my baby girl isn’t human?

And that’s when it started off
People can be so judgmental
Little do they know that my robot can be gentle
The vessel of my love is on my level up above
Most people because their brains are no bigger than a crumb
Me and my clockwork gal meld together like lotion
Because the potion of emotion is imprinted in her vertebral canal
I control her with a dial
A single syncopation in the rhythm’s algorithm is a blank computer file
I miss the good old days where everything around me seemed to put me in a daze
It didn’t matter what it was
Inanimate, inadequate things were the ones that were never just a phase

And now i got a girl a like
Made of chrome and gigabytes
She’s the reason for believing that my life will be alright
I’m just having some fun with my aluminum hun
Not a care in the world when all is said and done

Your wires slither through my veins
I feel okay
Your wires put a virus on my brain
I’m turning into a machine
