lyrics

You can be a robot (4x)

You can be a robot
Now you are a robot
Now you’ve got a robot
To clean your room (clean your room)

A robot moves in a jerky sort or way
‘Cause he’s made of metal and wires
He loves to work like you love to play
And best of all he hardly ever tires

You can be a robot
Now you are a robot
Now you’ve got a robot
To clean your room

Pick it up, pick it up,
Put it where it goes
Any robot knows it’s so much fun to play
And when you’re playing robot you can
Put it away Put it away Put it away!

Engaging toy-location sensors
Seeking out toy
Removing from floor using hyperflazzicus procurement gizmo
Transfering to toy to storage facility
Part one of mission completed

Now you are a robot
Yes, you are a robot
Now you’ve got a robot
To clean your room (clean your room)

A robot works and he makes a little noise
Sometimes it’s a beep or a buzz
He’s a little bit stiff when he picks up your toys
And puts them all away the way a robot does

Pick it up, pick it up,
Put it where it goes
Any robot knows it’s so much fun to play
And when you’re playing robot you can
Put it away Put it away Put it away!

Cleaning can be fun

You can be a robot (4x)

Walk like a robot
Laugh liike a robot
Work liike a robot
Clean your room


WARNING: YOU ARE RUNNING LOW ON CLEANING POWER. BATTERIES NEARLY EXHAUSTED. GO IMMEDIATELY TO MOTHER, FATHER, OR OTHER APPROPRIATE HUMANOID FOR A BIG HUG.

CHARGING COMPLETE!

Now you are robot
Once again a robot
Now you’ve got a robot
Your very own robot
Good to be a robot
Fun to be a robot
Got to be a robot
To clean your room

A robot is strong
A robot is smart
And best of all you never have to feed one
When the robot is through
Your room will be clean
It’s great to have a robot when you need one!
