about
Here's another SquidFish Attacks!!! robot mood-ingestion add-on pack.
Ever felt a bit blue at a party? No one japing at your jokes? Sycophants shutting you out? Do you come home and look to your robot for sympathy only to be met by a confused, metallic stare? Well now you can force them to experience that same emotional detachment from their fellow man, all from the comfort of their charging station!
The second in our mopey synth-ballad jam series, the patented mood-ingestion aural method re-codes a robot's auxillary sensors so they truly believe they are in a different place and time. Treat your robot today, feed their emotional database and learn together.
Expect more from Squidfish Attacks!!! with new and exciting add-ons very soon!
lyrics
Neon barlit ballroom, left for the moment
Lights refracting in the tumblers for now
Unattended and wishing for company
Striking up the courage to communicate somehow
Bolted to the floor
Right next to the door
Searching inside the soul
Push through this self-control
People laugh and enjoy the conversation
My heart sinks like a stone,
I'm just serving drinks, it's now my function
I shouldn't feel alone
The punch I should be feeling is on the table now
Being served and decreasing fast
I need to get out there and feel something
This shyness can't possibly last
The fog washes along the room
Feeling sickly sweet
My light too dark to observe my surroundings
And listen to this plodding beat
Fleeting glances severed
Can’t we connect together?
Not lusting for romance
Just looking for a dance
People laugh and enjoy the conversation
My heart sinks like a stone,
I'm just serving drinks, it's now my function
I don’t wanna feel alone
This cocktail of emotions has combined to make me feel
Deserted and stressed all night
I’ve gotta get out there and feel something
This doesn’t really feel right?
This lock inside me needs to open
Stop blaming what’s beneath
This is the night to make things happen
Are you ready for my aperitif?
I may laugh and enjoy your conversation
Though I’ll communicate with my voice
I realise, that I have no filter to control me
If you don’t like it then that’s your own choice
We must cut through all this nonsense
To tread on shells that were bound to break
I’ve got to love and leave you my patrons
‘Cos tonight I’ve got a night I’ve got to make
