The Wombats - I'm a Robot Like You lyrics

I'm a robot like you
A maze of coiling wires held in with glue
I'm a robot like you
Born of a soldering iron
And some unfaithful screws

I'm an artificial man
With some artificial plans
That I dress to the nines for you
I've got a tin box of plastic bags
That I shove down my rucksack
So it bulges like I've got
Something of importance to do perhaps I have
But this programme only ever
Let's me follow suit

I've got some artificial friends
Engrossed in artificial trends
They wear their hair coiffed up
Like it's leaving their heads mid-flight
There's a procedure to self-implode
But too many glitches run throughout the code
So I turn the lights down and
Pleasure myself to pass time i know it's sad
But in this programme
It's really quite a highlight

I'm a robot like you
A maze of coiling wires held in with glue
I'm a robot like you
Born of a soldering iron
And some unfaithful screws

I'm an artificial man with
Some artificial plans
That I dress to the nines for you
I work for a local think tank
I do no research and I avoid the tax
Still, I feel I need a
Drastic change of route i know I can
But this damn programme only ever
Let's me follow suit

I'm a robot like you
A maze of coiling wires held in with glue
I'm a robot like you
Born of a soldering iron
And some unfaithful screws

I'm a robot like you i'm a robot like you
