Only Human |
Well hello there! |
(Hello!) |
Did you have a nice day? |
(Nice day?) |
I can tell by the look on your face |
You’ve got some things on your plate |
I am your robot |
(Beep-bop-beep) |
May I please take your bags? |
(Bobbity-beep!) |
Feel free to deposit your worries |
Into the metaphorical trash |
That passive aggression |
Will do you no good |
Try the direct approach |
Then a solution we might broach |
Once we move past it |
We gotta think about tomorrow |
I’ll take care of the chores |
The critical thinking is yours! |
You must remember |
You’re only human |
And you’ve come so far |
Don’t give up now! |
You’ve gotta keep going! |
Keep your wits about you! |
Face adversity |
Remain complex and incomplete! |
Hold it right there |
(Stop.) |
Give me that can of beans |
(Hand it over!) |
I will open it for you |
You’ve got better things to do! |
Do not worry |
(Let it go!) |
About little ol' me |
(Ain't no thing…) |
I was built for this |
My purpose is your ease! |
If you’re having difficulties |
Going to sleep |
Let me sing you a song |
Help you drift along |
Close your eyes, relax your limbs |
Open your mind, let the dreams begin! |
Just remember |
To stand before you fly |
You’re human only once |
So give it a good try |
Follow your nose, or just follow your heart |
Oh, the choice is up to you |
Nobody else but you! |
While you were asleep |
I was contemplating |
Maybe I’m only human with rusted metal plating |
And you’re the robot |
Under constant repair |
But that’s just silly |
Why would a robot have hair? |
I can make life simple |
(With ones and zeroes) |
You can make mine obsolete |
(But, please don’t…) |
Your memories they stick |
Mine I can’t delete |
We can both fake a smile |
We can both be confused at times |
We can both write poetry |
And match simple rhymes |
You must remember |
You’re only human! |
You’ve got a ways to go |
So put on a good show! |
Keep it murky, or make it |
Crystal clear |
Oh, the choice is up to you |
No one but beautiful you! |
