Story Behind the Song
Well....Peter and Nick were really drunk after Pity da Fool performed at their own house party. As Peter pumped out the chords that would soon become Robot Railroad on a tiny little electronic cheap finger keyboard, Nick grabbed a pad of paper and began to jot down some random words. Cacti, flapjacks, anxious rabbits? I don't know where I came up with that shit. But it sure does sound good. I dare you to try to dislike this song. Actually, make that a double-dog dare. falsetto, n. A false or artificial voice; the tones above the natural compass of the voice.
Lyrics
Robot Railroad Robot, Robot Robot Railroad
I got a robot railroad
and on it, there's some cacti
with them there's some flapjacks
and don't forget the anxious rabbits
on the Robot Railroad
Yeah I got a robot railroad,
tell the conductor to gather all the boys and girls and take a ride
The train, it left the station
my bags, yeah they were packed
the robot, he took my hand
and this is what he said:
"Bee, boo, bop, boo, beeboo, bop!"
On the robot railroad
The sun hit the back of your metal head....
