When a man’s an empty kettle 
He should be on his mettle 
And yet I’m torn apart 
Just because I’m presumin’ 
That I could be kind of human 
If I only had a heart 
I’d be tender,
I’d be gentle And awful sentimental 
Regarding love and art
 I’d be friends with the sparrows 
And the boy that shoots the arrows 
If I only had a heart ”♫ ♩ ♬

Robot: “Please get my oil can from over there”.
