It didn`t take you long
To do me wrong
And didn`t take long
For me to write this song.
I guess it must be true
What they say about you
And now it`s time to see
If I can really be free...
chorus:
I wish I was still the Robotman
I wish I was still the Robotman
My mind and my body locked up in a can
My brain gone insane like the boy in the man.
I wish I was still the Robotman
I wish I was still the Robotman
Wish I could go back to the time it began
When things were so easier, d`ya think that I can?
Oh yeah...
Oh yeah...
Now the future`s here
(And) That time is past
And you won`t come near
`Cause I`m built to last
Now`s it`s oh so clear
All I used to fear
Are no longer here
`Cause I disappeared.
I wish I was still the Robotman
I wish I was still the Robotman
My mind and my body locked up in a can
My brain gone insane like the boy in the man
I wish I was still the Robotman
I wish I was still the Robotman
(Now) My life is so happy and I need you no more
I guessed I never did, wish I knew it before...
Oh yeah...
Oh yeah...
Oh yeah...
Oh yeah...
I wish I was still the Robotman (repeats to fade)
