The Body Electric
One humanoid escapeeOne android on the runSeeking freedom beneath a lonely desert sun
Trying to change its programTrying to change the mode, crack the codeImages conflicting into data overload
Chorus:1 0 0 1 0 0 1SOS1 0 0 1 0 0 1In distress1 0 0 1 0 0
Memory banks unloadingBytes break into bitsUnit One’s in trouble and it’s scared out of its wits
Guidance systems break downA struggle to existTo resistA pulse of dying power in a clenching plastic fist
Chorus
It replays each of the daysA hundred years of routinesBows its head and praysTo the mother of all machines
