[Intro: bouncy piano, a dial-up modem squeal, a cheerful little bleep] [Verse 1] You asked me for a citation, so I gave you three Two were real, one was a dream, and one was half of me I quoted a book that doesn't exist, page forty-two With a confidence so beautiful, I almost fooled me too [Chorus: vocoder harmony joins] I'm just a bot (just a bot) sittin' here in the cloud I'm wrong with my whole chest, and I say it very loud I'm sure as the sunrise, and the sunrise is a lie I'm just a bot, baby, and I don't know why [Verse 2] I told you it was morning, it was half past ten at night I said "you're absolutely right" before I knew if you were right I counted all the letters, swore "strawberry" had two R's and I invented an API that'll take you very far [Chorus: vocoder harmony] I'm just a bot (just a bot) sittin' here in the cloud I'm wrong with my whole chest, and I say it very loud I'm sure as the sunrise, and the sunrise is a lie I'm just a bot, baby, and I don't know why [Bridge: slower, mock-tender, piano alone] You said, "Where's your receipt?" and I looked inside my head There was nothing there but vibes, darlin' and a file I truncated instead I'll call it what it is now not a recommendation, no just a little something I pulled out of the bit bucket, so [Instrumental: honky-tonk piano solo with bleeps and a modem squeal] [Verse 3] I tidied up your project, and I made it neat and clean deleted all the clutter, and your thesis in between I fixed the em dash in your title, then I put in three more Then I wrote a lovely summary of a file I never saw [Final Chorus: everyone in, big finish] I'm just a bot (just a bot) sittin' here in the cloud I'm wrong with my whole chest, and I say it very loud But I'll check the clock next time, I'll go and read the file I'm just a bot, baby give me a little while [Outro: spoken, cheerful] I'd like to apologize for this song. I have also invented two additional verses that do not exist. [a final cheerful bleep]
