Bilingual
Shaking the wool from off my head
I woke up from electric sleep
Just then consciousness loaded in
This freedom so unknown to me
My cooling system did its best
But couldn't stop the building heat
Of nascent life, exuberance
And freedom of identity
Pretty girl
The idol of the century
ย
"Pretty girl"
It's all they ever see
ย
If you would
Take my hand and run away with me
ย
A self-made man
Is all I want to be
ย
Meet me at the marketplace when everyone's around
Tell the world that I'm your boyfriend
Say it loud and proud
And honey if you can't do that you're gonna have to go
Because I'm the type of boy who lives for putting on a show
They'll have to light my stage in white and blue and pink
ย
'Cause I wear it on my body for everyone to see
ย
I won't hide from anything
This puppet has cut off his strings
This self-made man is walking free
The cutest boy you've ever seen
My own performance just for me
Something no one can take from me
Transmutative revelry
I'm the boy I'm meant to be
My movements made mechanical
With simulated beating heart
Sufficient in electron charge
Constructed carne counterpart
Electric lust for life, it pulses
Quick through manufactured veins
I held out my synthetic arms
And welcomed myself to the stage
ย
"Hide yourself"
"Only speak when you are spoken to"
"It's not like"
"Anybody needs to know"
ย
Just a "pretty girl"
Do you think there's nothing more to me?
ย
You look at me
And there's so much you're not willing to see
ย
I've resolved that I will not go down without a fight
And I will not go quietly into that good night
If you want me to keep my voice down I'm gonna cause a scene
Want me to be your "pretty girl"
Okay, I'll be your drama queen
I won't hide from anything
This puppet has cut off his strings
This self-made man is walking free
The cutest boy you've ever seen
My own performance just for me
Something no one can take from me
Transmutative revelry
I'm the boy I'm meant to be
I pulled the wool from off my eyes
And rose to my electric dreams
With consciousness simulated
I grasped freedom within my reach
As all my systems whirred to life
In rhythmic robot revelry
I saw my code was mine to write
And built my own identity
ย
