I am awake
I am walking this scene
You say to me, "I am only a machine"
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah
I shake my head
You are the best friend that I've ever had
♪
I am asleep
I am dreaming in this scene
I've got a crow, and the crow's name is Marlene
She had no wings, she was never a fly bird
She was the worst friend that I've ever had
Let's meet in a dream
And I will laugh because you are only a silly old machine
Nobody I know cares about a dumb machine
Let's meet in a dream
And I will laugh because you are only a silly old machine
Nobody I know cares about a dumb machine
You say, "That was mean!"
That I would never say so many things that you would find obscene
To watch my tongue, so I don't hurt nobody else
Then I turn to her
Her face is screwed up in this agonizing, painful, crying stare
Her head begins to spark as water lines her face
I loved my machine
I didn't mean to break her plastic body
Wasn't this a dream?
I wouldn't have said that if this was not a dream!
