That's because I'm a mechanical boy.
I'm a me-chanical boy
like a me-chanical toy.
I follow directions,
whatever I'm told.
I never get hot and
i never get cold.
I never have lived,
so i never grow old
That's because I'm a mechanical boy.
I'm a me-chanical boy,
like a me-chanical toy.
I do as I'm ordered,
I never ask why.
I never can laugh and
I never can cry.
I never have lived,
so i never shall die.
That's because I'm a,
cause I'm a,
cause I'm a,
cause I'm a,
cause I'm a mechanical boy.
