Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto,
Mata ah-oo hima de
Domo arigato,Mr. Roboto,
Himitsu wo shiri tai
You're wondering who I am-
machine or mannequin
With parts made in Japan,
I am the mod-ren man
I've got a secret
I've been hiding
under my skin
My heart is human,
my blood is boiling,
my brain I.B.M.
So if you see me
acting strangely,
don't be surprised
I'm just a man who
needed someone,
and somewhere to hide
To keep me alive-
just keep me alive
Somewhere to hide
to keep me alive
I'm not a robot
without emotions-
I'm not what you see
I've come to help you
with your problems,
so we can be free
I'm not a hero,
I'm not a saviour,
forget what you know
I'm just a man whose
circumstances
went beyond his control
Beyond my control--
beyond my control---
I need control---
we all need control--
I am the modern man,
who hides behind a man
So no one else can see
my true identity
Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto, domo...domo
Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto, domo...domo
Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto, domo...domo
Thank you very much, Mr. Roboto
For doing the jobs that nobody wants to
And thank you very much, o, Mr. Roboto
For helping me escape just when I needed to
Thank you-
thank you, thank you
I want to thank you,
please, thank you
The problem's plain to see:
too much technology
Machines to save our lives.
Machines dehumanize.
The time has come at last ,
To throw away this mask
Now everyone can see ,
My true identity...
I'm Kilroy! Kilroy! Kilroy! Kilroy.
