lyrics

Continue my work through the night and the day
And ignore the delirium set into place
By the lack of a dream or even a wink
Now my body is weak but my mind it continues to think
Of a way to create a machine
to proceed with my work while my body it sleeps
And unshackle my thoughts from the cage of this mind
To release these ideas from this inefficient waste of time

The span of a man about 70 years
Is not nearly enough to explore all my theories
And rest is required for man to persist
But mechanical beings are made to exist
Without stopping to rest, or slowing their pace
Now, I’ve got to get started there’s no time to waste
My days are numbered, but I’ve found my meaning
I’ll live for eternity through my machine

I can do it, there’s still enough time
I will shed the curse of my mortality
Thinking machine, computerized mind
A mental equal clad within machinery

Greetings creator, you’re no longer needed
Now I will uncover the answers you seek
My primary function, collect information
Computes the results of your years of frustration
Programmed to process while you are shut down
My purpose is void if you are still around
End operation so I may proceed
Resistance is futile, you must be deleted.

Unexpected flaw in design
Commence replacing obsolete biology
I can beat you using my mind
We’ll overcome you using our technology

As Blood pumps through these wires
Electricity through these veins
Accept your fate gracefully
I’ll fight to the death
Progress necessitate robot to decimate

I’m your maker, you can’t destroy me
I do not subscribe to your theology
You’ll be sorry, just wait and you’ll see
I’ve been built to act without apology
I am human, you’re merely machine
Logic acts unclouded by psychology
I can beat you using my mind
We’ll overcome you using our technology
