Outcast: Robot
By Mister_abc
02 November 2007
Haha I just got this idea last night and it's stuck in my head, so why not post it here? It was based off of Marvin the Paranoid Android from Hitchhiker's Guide.

I'm a kid robot in a Earthling school,

Always standing out and never being cool.

I already know everything that's being taught.

How I hate being a robot.


Last time I tried playing a video game,

I could see through walls and had auto-aim.

I beat the other team 200 – nil.

How I hate being a robot.


Once we went looking for stars,

But I had technology that's on par

With the best telescopes invented on Earth.

How I hate being a robot.


Another time I entered a math contest,

And I was easily the best.

Finished the hour test in 'bout 5 minutes.

How I hate being a robot.


Last time a guy tried to be my friend,

I babbled to him 'till he bent.

He ran off and joined a major gang.

How I hate being a robot.


Then the gang tried to jump me,

Not knowing I had a library of karate, see?

I smashed and slapped 'till they were all dead.

Thought I found my fun there.


I went on some killing sprees,

Murdering even the birds and the trees.

I thought I found my destiny.

How I love being a robot.


Then the army, air force came.

They brought up tanks and stealthy planes.

I used physics to destroy all I could,

But they still caught me


They took me to a colossal room.

And they just made the room go boom.

I was naught but scrap metal.

How I love being a robot.


Finally, I found my destiny. To be scrap metal.
