Steam Powered Giraffe - Please Explain lyrics

Gather round Sit on down Forget your worries What's lost is found Purge the data break through strata dust off your CPU put it to a new use Been trying to get this one out for a good long while the centuries turn to the past still I lay beguiled Involuntary remarks for an old quandary a new Left in the dark what's an old robot to do Please explain What to do with this wild goose if there's nothing to chase What to do if the screw turns loose and there's nothing to gain Please explain it to me If your mustache makes a sandwich serve it on a platter two lovely nouns they need a verb the panda climbs the ladder if my mouth was made for mimicry what's a bronze robot to chew Gum in my gears and bat meat in my fancy shoes Please explain What to do with the panda on the roof Guess it makes for good imagery What to do with the bat meat in my fancy shoes I could sell it to the panda Please explain it to me Keep those legs high Breathe through your mouth and nose Excellent form The gra**hopper becomes the dandelion People are so impressed now Break it down I do not need uranium or your fossil fuels Friction from curiosity powers my hydro-tubes Answers stem more questions and grow my algorithms anew They do? Yes they do If there's no concepts to grasp what would I, robot, do Please explain What to do if the point is moot What's a moot anyway (I don't know) Is it the meat in my fancy shoes? Or the name of this wild goose? Guess we need some good-old-fashioned explaining Please explain it to me
