Rainbows & Robots

Post by j$ »

by Johnny Cashpoint

Everybody acts like they're an alien race these days,
Big robots out of space with their deadly rainbow rays;
It's so commonplace it has almost become a cliche
To destroy two-thirds of the human race.

There's nothing we can do but all move subterranean,
Wait them out while mocking their lack of imagination.

Seen all this before, what you doing it for?
Did you have a poor education? Can't you be more creative?

Zappp!

Shades at dawn
Power on
Sunlight on the rain already fallen
Sensors scan terrain tracking a crawlin'

This don't feel like home but that's the mission for you,
Planets are all the same when its folks you're missing,
Cumulate the data pass it on,
Plot a course, set Launch, and come back home.

Rainbows and Robots

Got a place on Noe and Ford
in the fabulous Castro district
colorful people and automatons
in the neighborhood, you can't resist it

The mechanoids just need to plugin
They don’t mind the smaller “living” space
Just like the clones they reboot alone
They’re so clean and devoid of nearly any waste

I climb atop the Sutro Tower
(You don’t know if you’ll get caught)
Imagining what the future is down there
( rainbows and robots)

A working class of Benders and R2s
Are residing only two doors down
They keep us safe and fix everything
Life is better since they came around

Enjoyed the view from Sutro Tower
(Rainbows and Robots)
I watched fruition of that future down there
(Rainbows and Robots)

I spy a market with some fruit so ripe!
(mangos and kumquats)
I plan my life for the city tonight
( Tacos and the Noc Noc)

Optimis and some leather boys
Share a painted lady on a tiny lot
All the droids never get annoyed
With all the drama that the town has got

Tolerance and Technology
(rainbows and robots)
Happy People living with machines
(rainbows and robots)

Atop the tower, I dream these things
(rainbows and Robots)
Why did we fear a robot uprising?
(don’t know, forgot)
