I, Robot
Screeching Weasel · Anthem For A New Tomorrow [1993]
I might be paranoid
But I'm a living breathing humanoid
I am a rhombus
I plod around like dough
And I'm secure in everything I know
Am I American
Blue metal under skin
No I'm not human
I am a robot
I never have a doubt
I live inside a circle and I can't get out
I am mechanical
I don't question anything
My TV logic solves all my problems for me
Am I American
Am I a Gilligan
No I'm not human
I, Robot
