Mr.Roboto

睡不著，聽聽歌‧

會知道這首歌是因為電車男日劇第一集的開頭，下面是我東挖西挖的結果：

Mr.Roboto 出自 Styx (冥河合唱團) 的 Kilroy was here 專輯裡，這張專輯的年紀跟我一樣老了，歌林似乎還有出過台壓版的 LP‧老歸老，不過聽起來確很順耳，老搖滾還是頗不錯的‧

這份歌詞裡的 comment 寫的不錯：

“Mr. Roboto” explains what it feels like to lose your job to a machine

很有趣的是，在那個擔心畏懼機器人、擔心機器人毀掉藍領階段工作的時代下出生的我們，現在似乎更熱衷於創造這些機器人‧

歌詞：

Domo Arigato Mr. Roboto
Domo Arigato Mr. Roboto Mata ahoo Hima de
Domo Arigato Mr. Roboto Himitsu wo Shiri tai.

You're wondering who I am - secret secret - I've got a secret
Machine or mannequin - secret secret - I've got a secret
With parts made in Japan - secret secret - I've got a secret
I am the Modren Man.

I've got a secret
I've been hiding under my skin
My heart is human
my blood is boiling
my brain I.B.M.
So if you see me acting strangely don't be surprised
I'm just a man who needed someone and comewhere to hide
To keep me alive - just keep me alive
Somewhere to hide to keep me alive.

I'm not a robot without emotions - I'm not what you see
I've come to help you with your
so we can be free.
I'm not a Hero
I'm not a Saviour
forget what you know
I'm just a man whose circumstances went beyond his control
Beyond my control - we all need control.
I need control - we all need control.
I am the Modren Man - secret secret - I've got a secret
Who hides behind a mask - secret secret - I've got a secret
So no one else can see - secret secret - I've got a secret
My true identity.

Domo Arigato Mr. Roboto
Domo - Domo
Domo Arigato Mr. Roboto
Domo - Domo
Domo Arigato Mr. Roboto
Domo Arigato Mr. Roboto
. . .
Thank you very much
Mr. Roboto
for doing the jobs that nobody wants to
And thank you very much
Mr. Roboto
for helping me escape
Just when I needed to. Thank you thank you thank you
I want to thank you
please
thank you

The problem's plain to see: Too much technology
Machines to save our lives
machines de-humanize.
The time has come at last - secret secret - I've got a secret
To throw away this mask - secret secret - I've got a secret
Now everyone can see - secret secret - I've got a secret
My true identity - I'm Kilroy
Kilroy
Kilroy
Kilroy !
