Artificial Man

Intro: C  B  Bb  A   Dm  C# C B  Bb

E                    Am
I can't believe it's happening
Fm                                 C  B  Bb A
I just want to stay the way that I am.
Dm              G          Dm         G
I don't want to live a lie in an artificial world.

      C            B
Let's build an antiseptic world,
Bb           A
Full of artificial people.
Dm                 C#
Cure all diseases, conquer pain
    C           B
And monitor the human brain,
   E                          Am
And see what thoughts you're thinking.
Fm
Observe your feelings, Secret fears,
                                   C  B  Bb A
Controlling everything you say and do
    Dm              G
And we will build a master race
    Dm              G		 C      F  C  F
To live within our artificial world.


G       G7 	    G     G7
Tell it to the people all across the land,
G		      G7              C             F
We're going to build an artificial man (artifitial, artifitial man)
 				    C             F
 				   (artifitial, artifitial man)

With the physique of a Tarzan, and the profile of a Cary Grant,
A superior being Totally made by hand. (artifitial, artifitial man)
 						    (artifitial, artifitial man)
Throw out imperfection, mould you section by section,
Gonna make you the ultimate creation. (artifitial, artifitial man)
 						   (artifitial, artifitial man)

F     C
I can visualise the day
Dm                         Bb        Am         G
When the world will be controlled by artificial people,
    C       Dm                 Bb    Am         F
But I don't want to live a lie in an artificial world.

Gm                     Fsus4
Tell the world that we finally did it,
Gm                 Fsus4
Made a man that's totally programmed,
Preconditioned thoughts and emotions,
Push-button artificial man.
Did you ever want to live forever?
Well here's your chance to be a total automaton
'Cos we've improved on God's creation
Gm          Fsus4    Bb7
An outdated homo sapien.

Make you taller if you want it Make your hair grow longer if you need it.
If it doesn't exist then I guess we can breed it.

There'll be no disagreements, We'll dedicate our lives to achievements,
And organise your life and keep it totally planned.

I can visualise the day ...

Tell the world we finally did it.
Modified the population,put your senses and your mind
Under constant observation even when you're dreaming.
Replaced your nose, heart and lungs,
So shake me with your artificial hand.
We went and built a master race
To live within our artificial world.
