Doctor Franklyn
Our town had a scientist
Who promised us he could assist
With all our little everyday affairs
He built assistant robot men
Who towered 25-foot-ten
And said that they would meet our every care
But his motives were ulterior
'Cause he felt we were inferior
And very much to our surprise
These metal helpers terrorized
Oh, Dr. Franklyn, won't you get your robots outta here?
Life's been awful since they have arrived
Please, Dr. Franklyn, though it sounded like a good idea
Now we just wanna make it out alive
The massive robots went to town
Just blowin' up and tearin' down
And seein' how much havoc they could wreak
Now there's panic in the city streets
As people run from metal feet
The situation's looking pretty bleak
Well, perhaps if everybody goes
And grabs the nearest fire hose
We'll soak these things and let 'em rust
And leave these monsters in the dust
Oh, Dr. Franklyn, won't you get your robots outta here?
Life's been awful since they have arrived
Please, Dr. Franklyn, though it sounded like a good idea
Now we just wanna make it out alive
Let's go!
Oh, Dr. Franklyn won't you get these robots outta here?
Don't sit there lookin' sorry in defeat, bum, bum, bum
Please, Dr. Franklyn, we'd sure love for them to disappear
They don't look pretty piled in the streets
One, two, three, four!
Dr. Franklyn won't you get these robots outta here?
We'd love for you to have them out by five, hehe, that's right
Please, Dr. Franklyn, we'd sure love for them to disappear
'Cause we just wanna go about our lives
Get lost, yeah
Who promised us he could assist
With all our little everyday affairs
He built assistant robot men
Who towered 25-foot-ten
And said that they would meet our every care
But his motives were ulterior
'Cause he felt we were inferior
And very much to our surprise
These metal helpers terrorized
Oh, Dr. Franklyn, won't you get your robots outta here?
Life's been awful since they have arrived
Please, Dr. Franklyn, though it sounded like a good idea
Now we just wanna make it out alive
The massive robots went to town
Just blowin' up and tearin' down
And seein' how much havoc they could wreak
Now there's panic in the city streets
As people run from metal feet
The situation's looking pretty bleak
Well, perhaps if everybody goes
And grabs the nearest fire hose
We'll soak these things and let 'em rust
And leave these monsters in the dust
Oh, Dr. Franklyn, won't you get your robots outta here?
Life's been awful since they have arrived
Please, Dr. Franklyn, though it sounded like a good idea
Now we just wanna make it out alive
Let's go!
Oh, Dr. Franklyn won't you get these robots outta here?
Don't sit there lookin' sorry in defeat, bum, bum, bum
Please, Dr. Franklyn, we'd sure love for them to disappear
They don't look pretty piled in the streets

Please, Dr. Franklyn, we'd sure love for them to disappear
'Cause we just wanna go about our lives
Get lost, yeah
