That robot’s moving like a robot dancing badly

That robot’s dancing like it’s never moved around before

I could go on for hours criticizing that robot

Can’t they make a robot these days with more accomplished dancing skills?

            

C13: 0-0-2-3-3-0

It’s a mashed potato

F#7: 0-4-4-3-2-0

It’s a popping, locking,

C9no5: 0-3-0-3-1-0

bumping, grinding, twisting, breaking,

F#aug: X-X-4-3-3-2

jittering, buggy

Eaug: X-X-2-1-1-0 [slide up to A, return to main riff]

pile of nuts and bolts

And it’s dancing too mechanically

That robot is reverse engineering our dances

It’s got 4D models of Gene Astaire and Ginger Tharp inside of its head

Improved genetic algorithmic dance moves make me look worse by comparison

So I contend that dancing robot threatens all the dances of humanity
