Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto,
|
Mata ah-oo hima de
|
Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto,
|
Himitsu wo shiri tai
|
|
You're wondering who I am-machine or mannequin
|
With parts made in Japan, 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 somewhere 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 problems, 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, who hides behind a mask
|
So no one else can see my true identity
|
|
Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto, domo...domo
|
Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto, domo...domo
|
Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto, domo...domo
|
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 dehumanize.
|
|
The time has come at last
|
To throw away this mask
|
So everyone can see
|
My true identity...
|
I'm Kilroy! Kilroy! Kilroy! Kilroy!
|
