All my robot dreams I'm holding by this string I'm stuck as I sit and watch All the others I'm not quite like them I have no heart or brain and If had a chance to be like them Just for a day What I'd give to be a real boy I would trade this soul away And I will deal with all the bullies All the schoolwork If I could just have a single day And I'll make my parents mad And I'll cry when I get sad But in the end I'll be a happy kid If I had a chance to be a real boy My painted metal parts You can tell they probably Don't get me that far I really wish I could run away From this place I've seen some scary things I've also been them too But if I had a choice I would try not to scare you What I'd give to be a real boy I would trade this soul away And I will deal with all the bullies All the schoolwork If I could just have a single day And I'll make my parents mad And I'll cry when I get sad But in the end I'll be a happy kid If I had a chance to be a real boy If I could leave this place behind I would do it in a heartbeat With no second thoughts But like I said before I have no heart that beats And I have no brains with thoughts I'm here to stay it seems What I'd give to be a real boy I would trade this soul away And I will deal with all the bullies All the schoolwork If I could just have a single day And I'll make my parents mad And I'll cry when I get sad But in the end I'll be a happy kid If I had a chance to be a real boy
