My Metal Boy

It took me years to build your heart
 With a myriad of tiny moving parts
 But every piece was one piece closer to my goal
 Working 'til the day that you were whole
 I wound your key
 And you came to be
 So much more than just a wind-up toy

 You truly are the perfect son
 And I'm just so proud of everything you've done
 With far too many qualities I could extol
 It's obvious that you have made me whole
 I can't believe
 That you're here with me
 This child who has brought me so much joy
 My metal boy
 ♪
 With your childish grin
 And your curious eyes
 Everything is so new
 And the world's a surprise
 Wondering about life
 And the things that you see
 What exactly you are
 And why you're different from me
 Where you fit in this world
 And why do men have to die
 I won't always be here
 But I'm sure gonna try
 To do everything I can to prepare you
 I should have known this day would come
 When you'd be ready to go on your own
 You packed your little bag with oil and a light
 And said farewell to me and hugged me tight
 And goodness knows
 I hate to see you go
 I know you'll do well
 And my heart will swell
 But if you're in need
 Please come back to me
 Your company I always will enjoy
 My metal boy
 My boy
