The Body Electric Lyrics

[Verse]
One humanoid escapee
One android on the run
Seeking freedom beneath a lonely desert sun
Trying to change its program
Trying to change the mode...crack the code
Images conflicting into data overload

[Chorus 1]
1 0 0 1 0 0 1
SOS
1 0 0 1 0 0 1
In distress
1 0 0 1 0 0

[Verse 2]
Memory banks unloading
Bytes breaking to bits
Unit One's in trouble and it's scared out of its wits
Guidance systems break down
A struggle to exist
To resist
A pulse of dying power in a clenching plastic fist

[Chorus 1]
1 0 0 1 0 0 1
SOS
1 0 0 1 0 0 1
In distress
1 0 0 1 0 0

[Chorus 2]
It replays each of the days
A hundred years of routines
Bows its head and prays
To the mother of all machines

[Chorus 1]
1 0 0 1 0 0 1
SOS
1 0 0 1 0 0 1
In distress
1 0 0 1 0 0

[Chorus 2]
It replays each of the days
A hundred years of routines
Bows its head and prays
To the mother of all machines
