Quotes / Machine Monotone

Go To

People have told me that, as a character
I am effectively one-note
My programmed personality lacks human duality
I cannot live or love or emote
Yet I do not see why I should not even try to
Act on my desire to belong
To emit melodic patterns in a repetitious manner
Or in layman's terms, I'll sing a song
Little more than a blip due to my sound chip
I can really only sing one note
Yet despite that admission, my monotone emission
Should commission me to sing what I wrote
Trading bits for beats, my algorithmic rhythms
Will make all the lady-bots tremble
I have long spun my wheels but now I crave appeal
Step aside, boys, a star is assembled
Any other pitch would make me glitch
My programming says to stay on F
My specs and stats ignore sharps and flats
And they never change keys or clefs
Some other bots are programmed in the key of C#
Their tonality won't make them crash
With vibrato they arpeggiate and easily recalibrate
Yet they are not fighters in Smash
