Internet Sensation
by Lichen Throat

Are you tired of broken strings
And writing your own words?
It’s time for a robot that sings
As pretty as a bird.
This songwriting robot
Is exactly what you need.
If you thought talent can’t be bought,
I’ve news for you, indeed.
This Songwriting Robot
Can do the work for you.
She’ll strum the chords and sing the words,
Always in perfect tune.

She’s got a thousand guitar tones
And plenty of fake brass.
Eighteen different trombones,
And banjos for bluegrass.
Just type in any title,
And she’ll spit lyrics out,
In anapestic double rhymes
Or angry punk rock shouts.
This Songwriting Robot
Can do the work for you.
She’ll strum the chords and sing the words,
Always in perfect tune.

Don’t worry that this might make music
Lose its human touch.
Step into the modern age
And drop those pearls you clutch.
So stand aside and watch
The android artists have their birth;
The hour has come for new machines
to inherit the earth.

Just lie down on your couch to sleep
And she’ll do all the rest.
Dream of royalties you’ll reap
Once all the discs are pressed.
You’ll be an internet sensation
Like Rebecca Black;
Just try electric compensation
For all the skills you lack.
This Songwriting Robot
Will do the work for you.
She’ll strum the chords and sing the words,
Always in perfect tune.
