Become A Robot Lyrics

Here's hoping you don't (hoping you don't)
Become a robot (clang clang)
Clang, clang, whoops, too late
Here's hoping you don't (hoping you don't)
Become a robot (clang clang)
Clang, clang, whoops, too late
Let's stick together 'cause we're number 8*
Let's stick to numbers 'cause we're great*
Here's hoping you don't (hoping you don't)
Become a robot (clang clang)
Clang, clang, whoops, too late
Hey!
Wait!
Here's hoping you don't (hoping you don't)
Harbor a deathwish* (help help)
Help, help, help yourself
Here's hoping you don't (hoping you don't)
Harbor a deathwish* (help help)
Help, help, help yourself
Hip, hip, horrific are the words we sing
Hip, hip, horrific is our thing
Here's hoping you don't (hoping you don't)
Become a robot (help help)
Help, help, help, help
Help, help, help
Notes
*These lines are disputable. The liner notes to Then: The Earlier Years claim that the lines in the first bridge are as written here, and that in the second verse the line is harbor a wishnik. Many fans claim to hear harbor a deathwish or harbor a penguin, but deathwish seems the most likely. Others hear number A/'cause we're gray in the first bridge rather than what is printed here.
