Audio: The Robots - Retrosonica
Visuals: L'uomo meccanico / The Mechanical Man (1921) Directed by AndrÃ© Deed.

The film is classed as incomplete/partially lost as only 26 minutes of 80 have survived, due to being filmed on nitrate stock. A shame, as the scene where the robot chases the car is a real gas.

The scene where the 'robot' pushes his arm through the door is referenced in the factory chase scene in The Terminator (1984).

LYRICS below:
[Verse 1]
We're charging our battery
And now we're full of energy

[Chorus]
We are the robots
We are the robots
We are the robots
We are the robots

[Verse 2]
We're functioning automatic
And we are dancing mechanic

[Chorus]
We are the robots
We are the robots
We are the robots
We are the robots
We are programmed just to do
Anything you want us to

[Chorus]
We are the robots
We are the robots
We are the robots
We are the robots

[Verse 2]
We're functioning automatic
And we are dancing mechanic

[Chorus]
We are the robots
We are the robots
We are the robots
We are the robots
Written by Ralf HÃ¼tter, Florian Schneider and Karl Bartos.
