Lyrics[]
- Out of the sky
- The Floating Eye
- Will prophecy and pretend
- That this is the end
- The people run,
- Run to the hills
- Run for their lives to flee
- The horrible eye
- This was the dream
- Don't cross the streams
- Jumbo machine
- Can launch a rocket punch into the eye!
- The giant robot with bird-like head
- The giant robot he is our friend
- Some chollos want to point the gun
- but we've got the 3-2-1!
- Fire!
- Now we're talkin'
- Fire!
- Now we're talkin'
- Fire Now we're talkin'
- It's out of hand
- Oh oh
- When it's in my hands
- We've got missile command
- Oh oh
- Bird head's working now
- We're gonna watch it all fall down
- Kaboom! Fall down
- Kaboom! Fall down
- Kaboom! Fall down
- Kaboom! Fall down go boom
- Jumbo machine
- Shiny and clean
- Who else can save the people
- From the megaton punch?
- Invincible
- The guardian
- Of careless men who
- Run the world like a cartoon show
- Living the dream
- I hear the screams
- Living the dream
- To build my giant robot
- With giant birdhead
- Living the dream
- Jumbo machine
- Living the dream
- Shiny and clean
- We can face reality and fight

This started out pretty much as a digital song that didn't really go anywhere. We messed around with it and changed it and messed around and changed it again. It eventually became "Giant Robot Birdhead." The verses were inspired the guitar lick in the bridge comes from a riff we heard from an african song that was in the movie, "When We Were Kings" about the Muhammed Ali/George Foreman fight in Africa. If you're a cadet, you might recognize this music from the "... Look Back" video.
