Letra de Cabinet Man
The day they found me, I hadn't yet been played Inside my workshop behind the old arcade Electric desires had unraveled all my wires Now I'm in the box for safekeepingThe news reporters reported that I died But all my organs were living on inside Circuit board to brain with two lungs collecting change One big human heart gently beepingYou can't win me, I can't be beat I won't hurt you unless you cheat You can't see me behind the screen I'm half human and half machineThank God for business, they let me take the floor I stood so proudly, like I was going to war Players soon appeared and I quickly was revered This must be what love would have felt likeSuch dedication, they came from miles away With eyes so piercing, they'd wait their turn to play In perfect patient lines because I was in their minds I could do whatever I felt like (whatever I felt like)You can't win me, I can't be beat I won't hurt you unless you cheat You can't see me behind the screen I'm half human and half machineI'm happy for years and years And, only eating the occasional maintenance man Only driving a few kids to madness Maybe they were predisposed to madness, who knows? I only want to have fun But now they're telling me my days here are done 'Cause there's a tiny little box they make in Japan And pretty soon it's gonna fit in your handIt's getting lonely, it's getting hard to breathe The arcade's empty, I think it's Christmas Eve Someone's broken in, now they're painting on my skin Breaking me and taking my quartersBashing in my face with a crowbar Kicking me and pushing me over Now they see my blood on their sneakersYou can't win me, I can't be beat I won't hurt you unless you cheat You can't see me behind the screen I'm half human and half machine
