Beans On Toast Saying Thank You To Robots Lyrics

Well I was hoping for a colour city
I got a driverless car
I was dreaming of a digital utopia
Ended in a useless class
Now every single Uber fitted with a computer
And the robots drive you home

It all boils down to the data
They're safer than a human any day
That's why we've got them on the border
And working on the checkout at the Tesco's down the way
You can't put the genie back in to the bottle
And you wouldn't even want to anyway

They took over manual labour
Was almost like it happened overnight
Oh much more cost effective and so much more reliable
As long as they were programmed right
Computer doesn't eat or break for a cigarette
The f*cking thing will work all night

There's been a lot evolution (there's been a lot evolution)
And since the revolution (and since the revolution)
My life has kinda lost all purpose (my life has kinda lost all purpose)
But I keep on saying thank you to robots (but I keep on saying...to robots)
And now I got a robot as a doctor
It's saved my life countless times
It's always in my pocket
Always in my bloodstream measuring my vital signs
Got a robot as a teacher, a robot as a lawyer
And I'm sleeping with a robot on the side There's been a lot evolution (there's been a lot evolution)
And since the revolution (and since the revolution)
My life has kinda lost all purpose (my life has kinda lost all purpose)
But I keep on saying thank you to robots (but I keep on saying...to robots)

As soon as human invents a robot that's smarter than a human
Then we're looking at an intelligence explosion
It will speed up exponentially until it slips out of our hands
And pretty soon they'll be building and teaching themselves
The machines that they build they don't need to be conscious
Just programmed with a really complex set of instructions
Instructions that our little minds can't comprehend
Until one day we become useless to them
And by building artificial intelligence, then all this is inevitable
But I can't help myself, I keep on saying thank you

There's been a lot evolution (there's been a lot evolution)
And since the revolution (and since the revolution)
My life has kinda lost all purpose (my life has kinda lost all purpose)
But I keep on saying thank you to robots (but I keep on saying...to robots)
But I keep on saying thank you to robots (but I keep on saying...to robots)
