All my robot dreams I'm holding by this string I'm stuck as I sit and watch All the others
I'm not quite like them I have not heart or brain and If I had a chance to be like them Just for a day
What I'd give to be a real boy I would trade this soul away And I will deal with all the bullies All the schoolwork If I could just have a single day And I'll make my parents mad And I'll cry when I get sad But in the end I'd be a happy kid If I had a chance to be a real boy
My painted metal parts You can tell they probably Don't get me that far I really wish I could run away From this place
I've seen some scary things I've also been them too But if I had a choice I would try not to scare you
What I'd give to be a real boy I would trade this soul away And I will deal with all the bullies All the schoolwork If I could just have a single day And I'll make my parents mad And I'll cry when I get sad But in the end I'd be a happy kid If I had a chance to be a real boy
If I could leave this place behind I would do it in a heartbeat With no second thoughts But I like I said before I have not heart that beats And I have no brain with thoughts I'm here to stay it seems
What I'd give to be a real boy I would trade this soul away And I will deal with all the bullies All the schoolwork If I could just have a single day And I'll make my parents mad And I'll cry when I get sad But in the end I'd be a happy kid If I had a chance to be a real boy
