one-note song (r.o.b. sings in monotone) - bitfinity (matthew taranto) lyrics

(r.o.b., mr. game & watch, r.o.b. and mr. game & watch)

[spoken]
now it is r.o.b.’s turn to sing
what? but you’re… a robot. you can only sing one note!
affirmative
what kinda song would that be? “bleep, bloop, does not compute.”
i find that stereotype offensive
all right, the mic is yours. i’ll just be over here, grabbing my earplugs…
commence song

[sung]
people have told me that, as a character
i am effectively one*note
my programmed personality lacks human duality
i cannot live or love or emote
yet i do not see why i should not even try to
act on my desirе to belong
to emit melodic pattеrns in a repetitious manner
or in layman’s terms, i’ll sing a song

little more than a blip due to my sound chip
i can really only sing one note
yet despite that admission, my monotone emission
should commission me to sing what i wrote
trading bits for beats, my algorithmic rhythms
will make all the lady*bots tremble
i have long spun my wheels but now i crave appeal
step aside, boys, a star is assembled
any other pitch would make me glitch
my programming says to stay on f
my specs and stats ignore sharps and flats
and they never change keys or clefs
some other bots are programmed in the key of c#
their tonality won’t make them crash
with vibrato they arpeggiate and easily recalibrate
yet they are not fighters in smash

[spoken]
say, you’re, uh… you’re pretty good!
compliment accepted
i guess a melody really can just have one note!
it can, and perhaps, should
well, despite all that, mind if i break the rules and join you in harmony?
very well. let us escalate the roof
what*what!
what

[sung]
we come from a time of electronica
a synthetic pulse from the past
where the only bleeps and bloops you’d hear on tv
were the chiptunes that we blast!
music doesn’t have to bind to your rules
not an art to be pigeonholed
whether organic and alive! (or synthetic with a drive)
as long as it… (long as it…) (long as it…) …moves your soul!
so in conclusion, it’s just an illusion
that a melody needs more than one note!
but if you’d like to enhance with harmonic descants
it may help supply an undercoat
so whether you’re flat (or monotone at that)
you’ll do well to remember this quote:
“you’ll never sound cruddy with an operating buddy
even if the song is only one note!”
“you’ll never sound cruddy with an operating buddy
even if the song is only one note!”
