I'm a helpless automaton
I've even got a docket from you
Hey, oh, it's true
Machin'ry in my pocket
Make an ultimatum to you
Hey, it's true
I'm a helpless automaton
I've even got a docket from you
It's true
I'm a helpless automaton
And I feel no pain
But he just smiled
'Cause I haven't felt this way for very long
I stand at your door
'Cause I still feel that signal coming in so
But I wheel away
Make an ultimatum to you
It's true
Machin'ry in my pocket
I've even got a docket from you
Metal heart and a metal brain
And now my turn to fire upon
I went to the man
I guess I'll wait a moment more
Said, I was a fractious child
But something is wrong
"Distrusted not rusted"
I told him a robot is what I am
Your hall light comes on
What need I of light?
To dream of your face
Make an ultimatum to you
Hey, it's true
But a video screen takes its place
But I know he's wrong
That's why I feel so disgusted
Hey, it's true
Machines they can see in the night
Defer my plight for another day
Machin'ry in my pocket
