Family Stereo - Robot Boy lyrics

Artist: Family Stereo

album: Robot Boy


Last night I saw
Across your bedroom floor
The sketches you made
For robot boy
You took the tv apart
To build his loveless heart
And you traded your grief
For his robot joy
And I only just made
The last train home
Cos we were up late
Teaching him to talk
In morse code
And if he helps you
Get through your exams
I think he'll do just about anything
That we programme
But all he asks
When we show him the night sky
Is why a satellite looks like
The back of his hand
And we wanna tell him
He's the only friend we've ever had
But he wouldn't be able to understand
I mean he can't even name
Your favourite band
He got overexposure
From the wires in my toaster
So I told him
That I'd skip breakfast too
And that day when we went swimming
I couldn't bring myself to tell him
If he jumped in he wouldn't climb back out
And there are so many things
That I'll never be able to explain
And he thinks he's just like
All the other kids that he plays with
If I could just figure out
Where to put away the memories
I have with him now
When we finally have to take him apart
Because he deserves the world
Just not the one we made for him
And all he asks
When we show him the night sky
Is why a satellite looks like
The back of his hand
And we wanna tell him
He's the only friend we've ever had
But he wouldn't be able to understand
I mean he can't even name
Your favourite band
Robot Boy
