      E                           B 
Q.O.T.S.A. on the hi-fi, we were talking via wi-fi. 
        C#m 
So much Aqua Teen and sci-fi - I was, "Oh, my!" 
 B                 A                      B           E 
When he said, "I love you, girl," it was four in the morning. 
                                     B 
It's a simple computation: you take easy conversation, 
     C#m 
add erotic exploration, adoration... 
      B               A                               B           E 
but when he said, "I love you, girl," it should have come with a warning. 

He said, "I gotta go, go, go, 'cause it hurts to feel. 
           A 
I'm gonna run, run, run like a man of steel." 
            C#m          B    E 
And I could try, try, try to stay in the fight, 
        B       A        E 
but when push comes to shove, 
           B   A       E 
we are only robots in love. 

E     A     E        B 
              Delete. 
                      A                                           E 
But when he said, "I love you, girl," it should have come with a warning. 
              
He said, "I gotta go, go, go, 'cause it hurts to feel. 
           A 
I'm gonna run, run, run like a man of steel." 
            C#m          B    E 
And I could try, try, try to stay in the fight, 
        B       A        E 
but when push comes to shove, 
           B   A       E 
we are only robots in love. 
        B       A        E 
But when push comes to shove, 
            B   A      C#m 
we were only robots in love. 
        B                   A 
In the afternoons, when we lay like spoons, 
G#                        C#m 
everything was more than okay. 
       E                 A 
And I saw no sign of your flawed design; 
                            E 
I guess I wasn't made that way. 

A     E     A 
        E                             B 
So he started to malfunction, and it hit me like a punch: 
            C#m 
in all our hours of connection and affection, 
 B                 A                            E 
when he said, "I love you, girl," it was only science fiction. 

Go, go, go, 'cause I need to feel - 
           A 
I'm gonna run, run, run into something real, 
            C#m             B     E 
and I could stay, stay, stay and put up a fight, 
        B       A        E 
but when push comes to shove, 
            B   A       E 
we were only robots in love. 
        B       A        E 
But when push comes to shove, 
            B   A       E 
we were only robots in love. 
B     A       E 
   Robots in love... 
            B   A       E 
we were only robots in love. 
            B   A      C#m    B    E 
We were only robots in love.
