Mecha-mania Boy
This is the boy who burns the books
This is the way he always looks
This is the boy who smashed his car
This is the boy who went too far
Washed his eye with yellow soap
He stole his daddy's microscope
All alone, we're not proud
Never say his name aloud
Now he wants to know your human's name
Where he goes, and whence he came
It's a mecha-mania boy
This is the boy who never sunk
He ain't the one who destroys his young
Oh, no
Everybody that's the way to roll
All alone or on the telephone
He knows the time you spend at home
Oh, no
Never say i didn't tell you so
Washed his hands of a deadly fate
He put himself in an altered state
In a crowd or all alone
No-one's laughing anymore
Now he wants to know your human's name
Where he goes, and whence he came
He's a mecha-mania boy
All alone, we're not proud
Never say his name aloud
Now he wants to know your human's name
Where he goes, and whence he came
It's a mecha-mania boy
In a crowd or all alone
No-ones laughing anymoer
Now he wants to know your human's name
