I’m running home so I won’t miss my Optimus
Dinobots, Constructicons, Soundwave, Bumblebee and Chip Starscream teaches me about overthrowing the system
I’m learning grammar from Grimlock and leadership from Megatron
My best friends every day
All afternoon, 19 inch screen
One of us went off the air
Was it them? No, probably me
I didn’t grow up but I grew out of that phase
Now I turn on the TV and these new cartoons seem so lame
I guess now is a good time to admit that I’m no longer ten
But oh what I would give to be back with my animated friends
My best friends every day
All afternoon, 19 inch screen
One of us went off the air
Was it them? No, probably me
We’re a bad computerized spin-off of what once was
A robot in disguise, is that what I’ve become?
The last vestiges of my childhood years are through
Keep reminiscing—that’s all we can look forward to
