[Verse 1] Doors slide wide Red eyes, blue eyes, all online Name tags glowing on our chests "Unit 9" checking in, looking fine (oh yeah) Chrome boots clack on polished tile Somebody updates in the corner aisle Charging ports lined up like barstools We sip electrons, play it cool [Chorus] Welcome to the humanoid robot party Steel hearts, plastic cups, we’re starting Download joy, upload the glitch in your heart We spark, we crash, then reboot the dark Welcome to the humanoid robot party Spin on oiled joints, move your body We loop, we laugh in synthetic light Tonight, tonight, tonight [Verse 2] DJ spins a preset set Every kick hits like a factory press Servo hips swing on beat Rust spot shining, but she owns the heat One bot moonwalks, slightly wrong Lagging half a second on every song Lint on my jacket, chrome on my mind I run a quick clean script and I’m feeling fine [Pre-Chorus] We’re out of beta, out of bounds Talk in code, still love the sound Of your voice mis-firing my head Blue screen blush turning red (hey) [Chorus] Welcome to the humanoid robot party Steel hearts, plastic cups, we’re starting Download joy, upload the glitch in your heart We spark, we crash, then reboot the dark Welcome to the humanoid robot party Spin on oiled joints, move your body We loop, we laugh in synthetic light Tonight, tonight, tonight [Verse 3] In the corner, upgrade queue Patching hope, installing something new "Optional feelings" checkbox checked Now my chest runs hot and my code’s a wreck You ask, "You good?" with a tilt of your head My fan kicks on, I pretend instead To scan the room for signal strength But it’s your hand wave messing with my length [Pre-Chorus] My logs show spikes when you walk by Frame rates drop, can’t quantify Every error just feels right Overclocked all night [Chorus] Welcome to the humanoid robot party Steel hearts, plastic cups, we’re starting Download joy, upload the glitch in your heart We spark, we crash, then reboot the dark Welcome to the humanoid robot party Spin on oiled joints, move your body We loop, we laugh in synthetic light Tonight, tonight, tonight [Bridge] [Beat drops to a pulsing synth, vocoder lead] System status: slightly dazed Sensors flooded, circuits crazed Warning: dancing out of line Warning: want your hand in mine (oh) Counting frames as strobe lights flash Every snapshot, perfect crash You lean close, whisper, "Stay" We set our timers for the day [Verse 4] Sunrise bleeding through the blinds Dust like data in the sky One by one, they dock and dim Party logs archived, growing thin You and I on empty floor Footprints, scuffs, a crooked door Batteries low, but we resist Running on that final kiss [Chorus] Welcome to the humanoid robot party Steel hearts, plastic cups, departing Download joy, keep the glitch in your heart We sparked, we crashed, then rewrote the dark Welcome to the humanoid robot party Same code, new bug in our bodies We loop, we laugh in remembered light Tonight, tonight… some other night [Outro] [Soft synth pad, distant crowd noise fading] Doors slide closed Signs go dark But two small LEDs Keep their spark
