about

Beyond Repair is a song sang by a machine that is no longer functioning properly. The machine begs its owner to throw it away and not feel obligated to keep it around. The machine believes that the owner’s life will be better with a newer, better functioning model. Its a very festive song that is stylistically inspired by musical theater.

lyrics

Take me to the junk yard
Throw me in the pile with others
I have broken down beyond repair
System overload
There's a bug inside the code
Of my biological software

I am beyond repair
I am comprised mostly of wear and tear
I am beyond repair
Why don't let me go
Don't be a square

I lie awake in bed
I feel like I am just a dead weight
So let's untie that knot
And sell me for scrap
At a salvage lot

Take me to the junk yard
Throw me in the pile with others
I have broken down beyond repair
System overload
There's a bug inside the code
Of my biological software

Under the scorching sun
I'll rust away. I've had a good run
Climb on this pile of junk
It's my new home
It will be fun

I am beyond repair
My wheels are spinning in the air
I am beyond repair
Time to dismantle now
This hardware

Take me to the junk yard
Throw me in the pile with others
I have broken down beyond repair
System overload
There's a bug inside the code
Of my biological software
