The Song in my Head #3
This song has been running around in my head for a few weeks now and it took me a while to remember who it was. Alan Parsons is probably one of the strangest artists/producers/engineers in the music business. This video from the 70’s confirms it. Inexplicably, It seems to be loosely based on “I Robot“, the book by Isaac Asimov.
I love this song and I can think of a few people in my past who I would love to send the lyrics (or at least a similar sentiment) to in a letter. I’ve included the lyrics below. Enjoy the video.
Lead vocal: lenny zakatek
If I had a mind to
I wouldnt want to think like you
And if I had time to
I wouldnt want to talk to youI dont care
What you do
I wouldnt want to be like youIf I was high class
I wouldnt need a buck to pass
And if I was a fall guy
I wouldnt need no alibiI dont care
What you do
I wouldnt want to be like youBack on the bottom line
Diggin for a lousy dime
If I hit a mother lode
Id cover anything that showedI dont care
What you do
I wouldnt want to be like you

I vaguely remember that song… I find the idea of humanlike robots frightening though I know that the rules of robotics are there to protect us.
