Lyrics: jwgh
Album: Needs More Wanger Arrangement, version 1: Casey B Arrangement, version 2: Not R
Album: The Barflies Soundtrack Arrangement, version 3: Casey B, Performance: Charlie, Rebecca, Tony, and Mike
Shortly after Interrobang Cartel was formed in 2003, there was a general call for lyrics. ZIP happened to have some lyrics about robots lying around that he had written for another purpose, so he contributed them.
Casey B and Not R then recorded two very different interpretations of the lyrics (the 'Data version' and the 'Dalek version') and things were off and running.
Both recordings of The Robot Song appeared on Interrobang Cartel's first CD, Needs More Wanger.
The Robot Song
- I used to work at the mall
- Selling robots wall to wall
- Ones that cleaned and entertained
- A robot chef, a robot maid
- Then one night on a dare
- I made my robots self-aware
- And it wasn't really planned,
- But now the robots rule the land
- And we're happier than we've ever been
- There was fighting, sure, at first
- When the bots conquered the Earth
- All the people thought we're doomed
- That by robots we'd be consumed
- But we humans had no chance
- Robots stunned us with a glance
- And after the human's final stand
- It was the robots ruled the land
- Now we're happier than we've ever been
- That's the last war that we've seen
- By decree of robot queen
- All the studies now do show
- That at ruling, humans blow
- Law's more carefully applied
- With a logic-loving guide
- Now with an impartial hand
- It's the robots rule the land
- Now we're happier than we've ever been
