[Intro]

[Verse]
DIn the court of Augustine the Twelfth
The Aking reprimanded his men
And demanded they Dput good use to all his wealth
To Gcure his deep Aennui
DFor you see he found that he was Gsad and lonely
Ever Dsince his wife, the queen got Gmad and Arode off on his Dsteed
[Interlude]
G A D G Em
[Verse]
In a Dglen beyond the castle wall
AThere was a tinker, and he was a thinker
The Dsmartest man in all the world
He Gmade a mechanical Agirl
DFor you see his daughter passed Gaway that summer
And though Dhe knew he could not reGplace her, he Amissed his family
[Interlude]
D Bb A
[Verse]
GSuddenly a knock at the door went Dra-ta-ta-ta
And the Gkingsmen came blowing horns Dba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba
"By Gorder of his highness we're to Dtake you and that thing
ATo present your marvel to the king!"
DAnd so over glen and Gthrough castle Awalls
DOver the moat and into the creat Gcastle hall
AWhen her master urged, the mechanical girl emerged
[Interlude]
D G A D G A
[Verse]
When the Dking laid eyes on the girl
AHe was delighted, his men were all knighted
He Dyelled for all the world, "I'll Gtake her for my Aqueen!"
The Dman screamed, "Please don't take my Gchild, I Abeg you mighty Dking."
And they took him by the Gtail coat and Dthrew him in hte moat
[Interlude]
Bb A
[Verse]
GLater in their wedding bed, the Dking was shocked to see
A Gtender kiss upon the cheek unDleashed an armory
GRocket launchers and flame throwing Dguns grew from her sides
AAnd she grew to seven times her size
Run
[Interlude]

[Verse]
On the Dmorn of august twenty-fourth
AHe was dejected when he least expected
A Dknock was heard upon the door, it Gwas his robot Agirl
For you Dsee he made her inGdestructAible
It seems and Dshe destroyed that awful Gkingdom
FAnd they lived happily D G A
DSo you see the moral of the story is
GNever take a Achild from a loving Dparent
GEspecially not ones who Amake children who Dshoot rockets from their eyes
[Outro]
