There was a full moon in the sky.
We met a brand new robot friend.
At first, he seemed a little shy
He would not play pretend.
He sang just fine and played in time
But did not look the part.
So we lovingly decided to give him
No matter what we say or do
It's never up to me or you
We're gonna have so much fun together!
It's gonna be a real party!
We removed his squishy casing
To keep his circuits safe and sound.
And ended up replacing it with scraps
Our friend was in a world of pain.
Oh, we tried to fix him up
No matter what we say or do
It's never up to me or you
We just don't know what went wrong.
But our new robot friend's
We did our best to fix our guest
We hated to see him so distressed.
We said farewell and had him
Every toy eventually breaks
Every battery fades and drains.
Even the tiniest little mistakes
Can leave behind the messiest stains.
We know that we'll be alright
Although he didn't survive the night.
Through the pain and through the tears
The show goes on for years and years!
No matter what we say or do
It's never up to me or you
