Flight of the Conchords
Robots (Live in London)
The distant future

Both:
The year 2000

The distant future, the year 2000

The distant future
The distant future

It is the distant future
Of the year 2000

We wrote this one ages ago

The world is very different now

Ever since the robotic uprising

Of Y2K

The technological advances
Are astounding

Everyone has pagers
We can download electronic letters

In a matter of 27 minutes
If it has a photo

But the most significant difference
Is there are no more humans

Oh, yes, I noticed that. Yeah, the
Entire human race has been decimated

Both: Finally, robotic
Beings rule the world

The humans are dead

Both:
The humans are dead

We used poisonous gasses

And we poisoned their asses

The humans are dead

The humans are dead
The humans are dead

I noticed they're dead

It had to be done
Just confirm that they're dead

So that we could have fun

Affirmative. I poked one
It was dead

Their system of oppression

What did it lead to?

Robo-depression

-Robots ruled by people
-They had so much aggression

Both: That we just had to kill 'em

And to shut their systems down

Jemaine:
Fellow robots
Do you not realize that
By destroying the humans

Because of their violent tendencies

We have become just
As bad as they were?

Who said that, R2?
Who said that?

R2, who said that?
Find them

-No, R2-D2, no!
-Silence!

-Destroy him! Pew, pew!
-No, R2-D2, no!

They made us work for too long

For unreasonable hours

Both:
Our programming determined

That the most efficient answer

Was to shut their motherboard
Fucking systems down

Can't we just talk to the humans?

A little understanding
Could make things better

Can't we talk to the humans?

And work together now?

No, because they are dead

I said the humans are dead

He's right, they are dead

The humans are dead

And just like he said

We used poisonous gasses

With traces of lead

-Both: Battery solo
Zero-, zero, zero, zero, one

Zero, zero, zero, zero, one, one

Zero, zero, zero, zero
One, one, one

Zero, zero, zero, zero
One, one, one, one

Zero, zero, zero, zero, one

Zero, zero, zero, zero, one, one

Zero, zero, zero, zero
One, one, one, one, one

Zero, zero, zero
Zero, one, one, one

One, one, one, zero
Zero, zero, zero, zero

One, one, one, one
One, one, one, one

Zero, zero, zero, zero
One, one, one, one

Come on, sucker, lick my battery

Both:
Boogie

Boogie, boogie

Robo-boogie

Boogie, boogie

Boogie

Robo-boogie

Both: Once again, without emotion
The humans are dead

Are dead, dead, dead, dead
Dead, dead, dead, doo

Jemaine: Thanks, London. Thank you

Thanks very much

We're gonna use this in the TV bit

Thanks to Nigel, the New
Zealand Symphony Orchestra
