He's a chip off the old block
Just like a robot he'll do for you
What he's programmed to
He's a chip off the old block
He's so sharp, bright and smooth
It's a pleasure just to know him
He's a graduate from the old school
Of hard knocks, the sly fox
The carbon copy of his father
If you didn't like his pa, don't bother
Some of us think these qualities are grim
To be just like the one before him
He's a chip off the old block
Just like a robot he'll do for you
What he's programmed to
He's a chip off the old block
It's so hard to resist him
And the fact is that he knows it
He doesn't have to be persistent
In his whole make up he shows it
Don't trust your woman's intuition
I'm guilty by my own admission
Now that he's got me in his clutches
I'm walking around with my heart on clutches
He's a chip off the old block
Just like a robot he'll do for you
What he's programmed to
He's a chip off the old block
The program to make a man
A simple plan that surely can
Make humans act synthesized
I think he's homogenized
The program to make a man
A simple plan that surely can
Make humans act synthesized
I think he's homogenized
He's a chip off the old block
Just like a robot he'll do for you
What he's programmed to
He's a chip off the old block
The program to make a man
A simple plan that surely can
Make humans act synthesized
I think he's homogenized
He's a chip off the old block
Just like a robot he'll do for you
What he's programmed to
He's a chip off the old block
