Robocowboys Paroles

Another lonely cowboy

From joining the lonely crowd



There's so many mavericks right off the map

We've redrawn the map to bring them all back

There's so many renegades off the beaten track

They're beating a track to my door

And I'm beating them back with a board



All the men in black
With a warm familiar glow



Robocowboys

You're dead ringers

Robocowboys

Say you're singers

Robocowboys

You're dead ringers

With your Texas Instruments



And breaking the rules has become the new rule

They're teaching it now at business school

They're all wild and crazy and one of a kind

Anarchists to a man

Everybody does it like no-one else can

And irony's a kind of sincerity now

With so many milking a once-holy cow

And alienation's a kind of belonging

A synth isn't cold any more

There's a country new wave banging on the door

Give the cowboys numbers

They don't deserve a name

They're all preprogrammed

They're all the same



Robocowboys

You're dead ringers

With your Texas Instruments

Say you're singers

Robocowboys

You're dead ringers

With your Texas Instruments



I came to a bend in the road and I saw

Two cowboys in black guarding two doors

One door leads to heaven, the other to hell, they cried

And one of us always tells truth, the other always lies



I shot them both to hell

And when the cowboys died

I opened them and saw cables

Snaking round inside
