Old Robot Lyrics by James Supercave

The Afternoon

2014

Touching your skin before sun it's so lily white
Hold all my calls I've got you on the other line
You barely talk but I get that you've got to go
Almost forgot that you chose to throw out your phone

Ride to your door like a kid on a bicycle
Nobody's home so I reach for a dial tone
I'll leave my message let old robot voice take it
I'll make the music if you want to sing on it

I'll take the floor if you need to stretch in my bed
I'll keep the cooking as good as your momma did
I'll punch the landlord if he ever gives you lip
Tie him in knots until 10 apologies drip

I've got a robot
A robot on tape for a friend
I've got a robot
A robot on tape for a friend

Don't be so sorry our phone tag's a one-way game
Don't have to answer the ringing to know I rang
I'll leave my message let old robot voice take it
I'll make the music if you want to sing on it

I've got a robot
A robot on tape for a friend
I've got a robot
A robot on tape for a friend

I'll keep the fakers from taking when you're big-time
Rearrange language with my little bizness mind
Stand on the sidelines and clap with my only hands
Elbow my way to the front like the other fans

It never made much sense for you
To be in love with me too
But i'm afraid that we might die before we
Die before we
Die before we try
