My first collaboration with rittmo' (Richard Blum).
I've posted my instrumental "The Land Of Robots" on Songramp and Richard sent me PM saying that he's created his words to my music. This was an amazing surprise to me and I instantly loved Richard's lyric and recital.

Words by Richard Blum (rittmo)

a drop of oil behind the ears
as I summon up the courage
a little more grease for my gears
it gets heavy carrying all this metal luggage

now that I'm squeaky clean
a machine amongst machines
will you take this tin can
to be your lawfully wedded man

I'm programmed to please
say God bless when you sneeze
iron each and every crease
I'm on bended knees

did you say no way jose
sorry that does not compute
my joints are getting pointed
how could you refuse my refuse

oh I see you're programmed to tease
you really didn't mean it
is that a yes I hear
I'm shaking so, I'll be all nuts and bolts in a minute

a clink of glasses
a toast to being rust free
and the clang, clang, clang
of eternity
