ROBOT MAN
(Sylvia Dee / George Goehring)

as recorded by Connie Francis
1960


I wanna robot man to hold me tight,
One that I can count on every single night.
He wouldn't run around like other guys,
I wouldn't have to listen to his alibis!

A little robot man to call my own,
I'd never have to worry that he wouldn't phone.
He'd never dance with anyone but me,
I'd just have to wind him with a robot key!

I'd have a steady date, (yay-yay-yay-yay)
Seven nights a week, (yay-yay-yay-yay)
And we would never fight, (yay-yay-yay-yay)
'Cause it would be impossible for him to speak!

Don't wanna real live boy, give me grief,
Always make me cry into my handkerchief!
So it's a robot man I'm dreamin' of,
Because I can depend upon a robot love, yeah!

Mmm, we'd have a steady date, (yay-yay-yay-yay)
Seven nights a week, (yay-yay-yay-yay)
And we would never fight, (yay-yay-yay-yay)
'Cause it would be impossible for him to speak!

Don't wanna real live boy, give me grief,
Always make me cry into a handkerchief!
So it's a robot man I'm dreamin' of,
Because I can depend upon a robot love, yeah!
Because I can depend upon a robot love,
I mean, because I can depend upon a robot love,
Do-oo, because I can depend upon a robot love,
Oh-oh, because I can depend upon a robot love...
