he seems so in control
but i would really like to know
is he worried?
cuz it sure as hell doesn't show
does he love or does he hate?
does he just coldly calculate?
i know he knows emotions can be convincingly faked
so his friends
just get what they can take
it doesn't matter in the end because he doesn't need a mate
and robot boy
doesn't worry about mistakes
he'll learn
he won't burn
he doesn't have a heart to break
don't deny it or refuse
to accept what the accused
cannot be excused for
and the door
which they continue to abuse
can no longer be used
no matter how amused they are
they've gone too far
but not him
he's perfect
or he's learning how to be
and he's still sucking information
from your head when you're asleep
and when he's through
he'll no longer need you
he'll be better than you
at all the things you used to do
don't worry he'll never be annoyed
by all your fears and all your tears
and all the simple things that you enjoy
why should he care?
logic works
there's nothing broken
so there's nothing to repair
he doesn't feel confused
he's got no choice to choose
will logic win or lose this time?
and he feels fine
but less than perfect just won't do
he's gonna blow a fuse
his metal skin has a brand new shine
so he looks fine
his perfection has to be complete
no one can compete
they know he's just to hard to beat
so they take a seat
and learn to cope with their defeat
robot boy repeats
this is my kitchen and you can't take the heat
so they retreat
and robot boy is left alone
with his skills perfectly honed
and the answer to every question
ever known
