Super Shiny Metal

Optimus Rhyme

Compositor: Optimus Rhyme

It's Mr. Cyberman at your service
I got the tightest band backin' me up to make these rappers nervous
The Omega elite, fit robotic physique
Use the power of suggestion and hypnotic technique
Just to get the crowd congested
See we gotta compete, I'm standing 3ft deep in pages torn from my notebook

And it's been ages since we logged a defeat
My throat took five years to recover from surgery, and now look
Yo it was worth it, I got these super circuits
Synthetic saliva, biogenetic tongue drivers
With inertia, endurance booster pack implants designed to hurt ya
I'm upgraded, obligated to alert ya
This entire operation was experimental
Lunatic techs warned me (this might hurt a little)
I heard the nurses giggle as they made the cut
An incision straight down the middle, lucky there's no blood

By the time I woke up
My head's spinnin', feelin' fuzzy
I felt the foreign presence of a figure full above me
She disconnect the cables just to get the pain settled
I love that girl, that nurse had super shiny

That nurse had super shiny metal

Super shiny metal(3x)

I was entranced by the time I recovered
Every night I dreamt that we danced under hospital covers
With bedpans sparkling like stars up above us
My medical condition didn't bother either of us
I'd wake up wishin' that I wouldn't be released
Couldn't be appeased, didn't care about those doctor's fees
I was shocked to see they finally made me leave
Took forty orderlies just to pull me from the sleeves, see

And I was in it deep, my heart wounded mortally
I started signing up for surgeries quarterly
Implants, upgrades, anything to see her face
Dealt with the pain 'cause this nurse meant more to me than life
Finally, one day she noticed
I took her to the cafeteria, we shared a soda
We slurped Dr. Pepper, then I laughed just a little
Man I love that girl, that nurse had

Super shiny metal(12x)

I became addicted to medical procedure
I needed stitches, she'd tell the medics no anesthesia
I learned the nurse's name, Bethany-Alicia
I was enamored, I'd do anything to please her

We started dating, and things were moving faster
Cohabitating is the plan that I was after
Finally, I asked her, "Baby, Will you marry me?"
She said, "No doubt, I'll be with you 'til they bury me."
We tied the knot down in radiology
We danced happily like a polyphonic spree
It was meant to be

We started cranking out the offspring
Bought a dog, then we weren't missing a thing
I thought that I'd retire old, It happened sooner
I handed down my microphone to little Wheelie Jr.
He really tears it up, takes it to that other level
Man I love that kid, that bot's got
