Unknown - Computer Love Song Lyrics

COMPUTER LOVE SONG
from an album called "Love songs for the 21st Century"


Hark to my tale of a very tragic love
so grievous to relate
Two star-crossed lovers with the perfect love
they could not consummate
Their love was constant, their love was true
but of passion it was devoid
For he was a univac mark II
and she was an XF-I humanoid

She gazed at him and a tear was in her eye
to her love was denied
Her lover stood four mighty stories high
and he was one block wide
How could they do the impossible
how could their love be enjoyed
For he was a univac mark II
and she was an XF-I humanoid

Then each to each on wavelengths ultra high
They whispered secretly
Of transistors and gears and shifts
and cams and printed circuitry
So time passed for the two of them
in the place where they were employed
For he was a univac mark II
and she was an XF-I humanoid

Then hush your sobs, my pretty little miss
and dry those oily tears
You know that robots can't afford to cry
it surely rusts their gears
You must give up all these thoughts of love
though it leaves you an aching void
Give up this Univac Mark II
and find you an XM-I humanoid
