Sister Lyrics

There's something you ought to know

about the latest model

she's not the usual kind

she's made of mindless metal

she's not exactly normal


but I don't care she's

got to be the one

got to be the two

got to be the three

got to be the four


behind the scanners and tapes

she's programmed for perfection

but sometimes simple mistakes

get by without detection

her figures need correction

[chorus]

Don't stand there takin' it

shake it up, Sister

you've got nobody else but yourself, Sister

Don't stand there takin' it

shake it up, Sister

one, two, three, four

give it hell

take it in

work it out

shake it up, Sister

There's something you ought to know

about her calculation

behind the needles and lights

she hears the faded data

selects a random sample

the sample says I've

got to be the one

got to be the two

got to be the three

got to be the four
