Helpless Automaton

Lyrics

I stay in my room
 All alone in the gloom
 What need I of light?
 Machines they can see in the night
 And I feel no pain
 Metal heart and a metal brain
 But something is wrong
 'Cause I still feel that signal coming in so
 ♪
 I stand at your door
 I guess I'll wait a moment more
 Your hall light comes on
 And now my turn to fire upon
 But I wheel away
 Defer my plight, for another day
 To dream of your face
 But a video scren takes its place
 Hey, oh it's true
 I'm a helpless automaton, Make an ultimatum to you
 Hey, it's true
 Machinery in my pocket, I've even got a docket from you
 ♪
 I went to the man, I told him a robot is what I am
 But he just smiled, said I was a fractious child
 "Distrusted not rusted" That's why I feel so disgusted
 But I know he's wrong, 'cause I haven't felt this way for very long
 Hey, it's true
 I'm a helpless automaton, make an ultimatum to you
 Hey, it's true
 Machin'ry in my pocket, I've even got a docket from you
 It's true
 I'm a helpless automaton, make an ultimatum to you
 Hey, it's true
 Machin'ry in my pocket, I've even got a docket from you
