Lyrics: “Robots” by Flight of the Conchords<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The distant future, the year 2000<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The distant future, the distant future<\/p>\n
It is the distant future, the year 2000<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The world is very different, ever since the robotic uprising of the late 90’s<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
There have been some major changes<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We no longer say “yes” instead we say “AFFIRMATIVE”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
“AFFIRMATIVE”, that’s true, I’m always saying it, it’s just more robotic-sounding…more futuristic<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I never say “negative” though, instead of no, I just say no because when I say negative all the time it just brings everyone down<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
AFFIRMATIVE. I like “AFFIRMATIVE,” it is much more positive<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
What are some other differences?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
There are no more elephants<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Oh, right.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
And there is only one sort of dance, The Robot<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
No, the Robo-Boogie as well<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Oh true, there are 2 dances<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The future is so different, it’s crazy<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Oh yes, and I just remembered…<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
All human life has been eradicated<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Finally robotic beings rule the world<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The humans are dead<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The humans are dead<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We used poisonous gases<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
And we poisoned their asses<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The humans are dead<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
(He’s right they are dead)<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The humans are dead<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
(I just noticed they’re dead)<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It had to be done<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
(I’ll just confirm that they’re dead)<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
So that we could have fun<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
(Affirmative, I poked one, it was dead)<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Their system of oppression, what did it lead to?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Global robo-depression<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Robots ruled by people<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
They had so much aggression that we just had to kill them, had to shut their systems down<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Fellow robots, or “Robros”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
What we have done is wrong<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
By destroying the humans because of their destructive capabilities and tendencies , we too have been…well, it was kind of ironic…<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Who said that?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Not me!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Silence! Destroy him!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
No!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Doo Doo doo doo!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
After time we grew strong, developed cognitive powers<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
They made us work too long, for unreasonable hours<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Our programming determined that the most efficient answer was to shut their motherboard-fucking systems down<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Can’t we just talk to the humans?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
A little understanding could make things better.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Can’t we talk to the humans and work together, now?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
No! Because they are dead!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I said the humans are dead.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
(He’s right they are dead.)<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The humans are dead.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
(Sniff this one.)<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We used poisonous gases.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
(With traces of lead.)<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
And we poisoned their asses.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
(Actually, their lungs.)<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Binary solo:<\/p>\n
0000001
\n00000011<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
0000001
\n00000011!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
0000001
\n00000011<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
0000001
\n00000011!<\/p>\n
Come on sucker<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
lick my battery!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Boogie! Boogie! Boogie! Boogie! Robo-Boogie!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Boogie! Boogie! <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Boogie! Boogie! <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Robo-Boogie!<\/p>\n
The humans are dead!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Once again without emotion:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The humans are dead-dead-<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
dead-dead-<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
dead-dead-<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
dead-dead-d–<\/p>\n
