Ghost In The Shell Stand Alone Complex - Be Human

I analyze and I verify and I
quantify enough
one hundred percentile no errors no miss
I synchronize and I specialize and I
classify so much
Don't worry 'bout dreaming
because I don't sleep

I wish I could at least thirty percent
Maybe fifty for pleasure
then skip all the rest

If I only was more human
I would count every single second
the rest of my life
If I just could be more human
I'd have so many little babies
and maybe a wife

I'd roll around in mud and have lots of fun
then when I was done
Build bubblebath towers
and swim in the tub
Sand Castles on the beach, frolick in the sea,
get a broken knee
Be scared of the dark
and I'd sing out of key

Curse when I lost a fight, kiss and reunite,
scratch a spider's bite
Be happy with wrinkles
I got when I smile
Pet kittens 'till they purred, maybe keep a bird,
always keep my word
I'd cry at sad movies
and laugh 'till it hurt

I'd buy a big bike, I'd ride by the lake
And I'd have lots of friends
and I'd stay out too late

If I could just be more human
I would see every little thing
with a gleam in my eye
If only I was more human
I'd embrace every single feeling that came
in my life

Would I care and be forgiving?
Would I be sentimental and
would I feel loneliness?

Would I doubt and have misgivings?
Would I cause someone sorrow too?
Would I know what to do?

Will I cry when its all over?

When I die will I see Heaven?
