Songtext von Space Robot 5

So far, so good, or so they say from Mission Control The deep of space is no place for a fragile human soul The rockets burn as servos click and turn and fall into theirplace Robots can't cry, don't laugh, can't die in the darkness ofspace He is strong, made of steel, with the graphite lining Watch his eyes flicker slow like the batteries are dying Space Robot 5, is he alive? So very alone, so far from home Three strands of wire, threefold the tie that binds She is the one thing on the earth for which he still pines To his heart, she was life So he prays to his Maker with a sigh As his fire sputters out, because robots never cry Space Robot 5, is he alive? So very alone, so far from home Space Robot 5, is he alive? So very alone, so far from home
