Mechanical Man Lyrics

Cover art for Mechanical Man lyrics by Devo

Those are both pretty devo (small d) notions; overdependence on technology leads to deevolution and atrophy, robots are people too.

The change from "me want what you want" to "what you GOT" reminds me of the last line reversal from "Freedom of Choice" - "freedom FROM choice is what you want."

Also, if you make a robot that wants what humans want, it's going to want what the humans have because there's never enough to go around. It's like Blade Runner.
