i went away on a government vacation
it was the best time that i ever had
shipped me back home from a secret location
my legs came back later in a plastic bag
metal papers
metal pens
metal hearts
metal hands
memorized the rules and learned to behave
but when i got to school i forgot
so they put me in a special classroom
where everybody is a robot
everything i say about my bad education
a million broken records have already said
learning how to live like i'm under sedation
learning how to live like i'm already dead
metal papers
metal pens
metal hearts
metal hands
memorized the rules and learned to behave
but when i got to school i forgot
so they put me in a special classroom
where everybody is a robot
