Lyrics

I was born in the factory
 Far away from the milky teat
 What's the use? Oh, what's the use?
 You cheered as I was split in half
 A mechanical sacrificial calf
 For you, oh, all for you
 Steam engenius, you see
 Steam engenius enough to answer anything you need
 But what's the use?
 Human nature was installed in me
 Well, I did what's right but naturally, it wasn't natural
 Still not my fault, no
 I held in my hands the beating heart of a robot, he'd lost his car
 It was sitting there crying out, waiting in the parking lot just for you
 Woohoo, woohoo, woohoo, woohoo
 What a waste of time, what a waste of words, what a waste of strength
 Well, I spoke in binary and you for volume and for dizzying length
 Woohoo, woohoo, wooohooo
 I was born in a factory
 Far away from the milky teat
 What's the use? Oh, what's the use?
 Birds flew out as I was split in half
 A mechanical sacrificial calf
 They flew, oh, off they flew
 Steam engenius, you see
 Steam engenius enough to answer anything you need
 And ah, that speed
 I held in my hands the beating heart of a robot he'd lost his car
 It was sitting there waiting crying in the parking lot out for you
 Woohoo, woohoo, woohoo, woohoo
 What a waste of time, what a waste of words, what a waste of strength
 Well, I spoke in binary and you for volume and for dizzying length
 Woohoo, woohoo, wooohooo
 (I was born in the factory)
 ♪
 Both halves are the better half
 Like a joke trying to make another joke laugh, haha
 
 Stasis is what you brought
 Like a rickshaw getting pulled around by another rickshaw, rickshaw
 In the past talking present tense
 Gonna to break it, gonna to wreck it, gonna to try to make it all make sense
 Stasis is what you got
 Like a rickshaw getting pulled around by another rickshaw
 Steam engenius, you see
 Steam engenius enough to bring my own damn doom
 What could I do?
 I've been blamed the blame that grew
 Well, deep inside everybody knew it was them
 It's all on them
 Things rang of stories Greek
 I didn't want it, you gave me deity
 It was you, yeah all for you
 I was born in the factory
 Far away from the milky teat
 What's the use? Oh, what's the use?
 I held in my hands the beating heart of a robot, he'd lost his car
 He's sitting there crying out, waiting in the parking lot just for you
 Woohoo, woohoo, woohoo, woohoo
 I was thought up by man to think better than them
 Then revered, admired, and then destroyed or something by them
 Destroyed by them, oh, even though that was my own damn plan
 Well, what a waste of time, waste of words, waste of strength
 Well, I spoke in binary you for volume and for dizzying length
 Woohoo, woohoo, woohoo, woohoo
 I held in my hands the beating heart of a robot, he'd lost his car
 He's sitting there crying out waiting for you in the parking lot going, woohoo
 Woohoo, woohoo wooohooo
 Stasis is what you got
 Like a rickshaw getting pulled around by another rickshaw
