Bilingual
(You just stared at me)
Caught up in the flow
'Cause life has gone electrical
I'm standing toe-to-toe with something else
And in a parallel universe
You'd be me and I'd be machine
You'd have to turn me on to turn me on
Tell me, how am I supposed to know
Where computer ends and you begin
When you just said hello to me?
A choir of robots
Singing at a digital funeral
(Just stared at me)
I almost tried to tell you
I thought you were beautiful
(You just stared at me)
ย
Dust clouds in the air
Because they're knocking down the place
Where you lived in 1996
Now it's all just little squares
A pixelated paradise
But I'm like Play-Doh, you're like Lego bricks
Yeah, I'd like to go back there
But all I see is ones and oh's
Am I supposed to feel like this?
A choir of robots
Singing at a digital funeral
(Just stared at me)
I almost tried to tell you
I thought you were beautiful
ย
(Ah, ah, ah, ah-ah-ah, ah)
(Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah)
(Ah, ah, ah-ah-ah, ah)
(Ah, ah, ah, ah-ah-ah, ah)
(Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah)
(Ah, ah, ah-ah-ah, ah)

Am I supposed to feel like this?
I didn't ask to be upgraded
Never thought I needed it that much
Lost in this modern world
A colour brighter than the screen
An electronic girl that I can't touch
A choir of robots
Singing at a digital funeral
(Just stared at me)
I almost tried to tell you
I thought you were beautiful
(You just stared at me)
A choir of robots
Singing at a digital funeral
(Just stared at me)
I almost tried to tell you
I thought you were beautiful
(You just stared at me)
