Gather round
Sit on down
Forget your worries
What's lost is found
Purge the data
Break through strata
Dust off your cpu
Put it to a new use
Been trying to get this one out
For a good long while
The centuries turn to the past
Still I lay beguiled
Involuntary remarks
For an old quandary a new
Left in the dark
What's an old robot to do
Please explain
What to do with this wild goose
If there's nothing to chase (please explain, oh-oh-oh)
What to do if the screw turns loose
And there's nothing to gain please explain it to me
If your moustache makes a sandwich
Serve it on a platter
To lovely nouns they need a verb
The panda climbs the ladder
If my mouth was made for mimicry
What's a bronze robot to chew
Gum in my gears
And bat meat in my fancy shoes
Please explain
What to do with the panda on the roof
Guess it makes for good imagery (please explain, oh-oh-oh)
What to do with the bat meat in my fancy shoes (woah-oh-oh)
I could sell it to the panda. Please explain it to me
I do not need uranium
Or your fossil fuels
Friction from curiosity
Powers my hydro-tubes
Answers stem more questions
And grow my algorithms anew
H: They do?
S: Yes they do
If there's no concepts to grasp
What would I, robot, do
Please explain
What to do if the point is moot
What's a moot anyway (I don't know)
H: Is it the meat in my fancy shoes?
R: Or the name of this wild goose?
S: Guess we need some good-old-fashioned explaining
All: Please explain it to me
