Machine Learning

Don't stare at them for too long Laugh some, but not too much And sing the words to that song But only the chorus If someone says they want you Don't flinch, just let them touch It doesn't really matter what you want I know you wanna be yourself Like everyone else But you've always needed help Memorize the manual You're hopeless on your own If you make it look natural Then nobody will know The story of the robot Who knows they'll never be More than a machine learning how to please Make social calculations Know when you're supposed to cry Fake real communication Rehearse your scripted lines Is living a performance? Depends how it's defined Forget that all your friends don't have to try I know you wanna be yourself Like everyone else But that's not where you excel Memorize the manual You're hopeless on your own If you make it look natural Then nobody will know The story of the robot Who knows they'll never be More than a machine learning how to please Be just what they expected Don't come as a surprise They might take you for granted That's just a part of life If you stick with the program Maybe one day you'll be More than a machine learning how to please I know you wanna be yourself I know you wanna be yourself, like everyone else If you stick with the program Maybe one day you'll be More than a machine learning how to please Just memorize the manual You're hopeless on your own If you make it look natural Then nobody will know The story of the robot Who had a secret dream To be more than a machine, more than a machine
