She called me a snake
Because my stare was so cold
No you don't understand
Just what you behold
Amid shouting and anger
And the tears of distress
Information is gathered
Then I clean up the mess
She needs a servant
Her love does demand
That he keep her together
And is always at hand
A strong one to protect
With no problems inside
Always full of desire
But with nothing to hide
I've turned into a robot
All my feelings were wrong
There was no other way
That we could get along
She can't seem to remember
I keep track of the way
There's no time for emotion
As I serve her all day
Examine the contract
Where the print's not so bold
You'll see she signed her name
Where my feelings were sold
Do you think that I wonder
How we got to this state
If I loved her I'd leave her
But I just can't relate
Now she's feeling betrayed
Because I am not moved
All these tests of devotion
And nothing was proved
She says I am cold blooded
Pushes me to the ground
I think she is screaming
But I can't hear a sound
I've turned into a robot
Isn't this what you need
Every human's a failure
Who could never succeed
She can't seem to remember
I keep track of the way
There's no time for emotion
As I serve her all day
