Steam Powered Giraffe - Automatonic Electronic Harmonics Lyrics






Ever since the first time I opened my eyes
I've awakened to the same thing
Other automaton friends roughly built like me

The first time I opened my mouth to speak
steam escaped to the air
and black oil dripped from my lips
and onto the ground

Well daylight struck a chord with my
photo-receptors
Night greeted me with a sea of stars
Our eyes all flashed blues and greens
through the night

It's just our

Ahh automatonic
Electronic
Harmonics

People are soaring, always exploring,
higher than they've ever been before
But we are still down here,
feet on the ground near
what will rise us up with the rest

Our thoughts are quixotic, stark and robotic,
mechanical in nature all the time
And pulses are firing in our head wiring,
guiding all our actions and beings

It's just our

Ahh automatonic
Electronic
Harmonics

I am not an unimaginable thing
My thoughts are tangible
though they're full of springs

I don't have the heart to send you untruthful words
My skin is cold to the touch and made from the earth

They say

Oh, oh it's so down, but baby it's sound
makes your worries cease to pound

And oh, maybe it's alright, 'cause baby it fights
for some time just to be held tight

And oh, maybe it's not wrong, 'cause it sings a lovely song
one that drifts on for so long

And oh, baby let's not lie, it's eyes are alive
and pointed up shining light to the sky

It's just our

Ahh automatonic
Electronic
Harmonics

Epic and so cool
Epic and so cool
Epic and so cool
Epic and so cool

Ahh automatonic
Electronic
Harmonics

Ahh automatonic
Electronic
Harmonics

  9. J.... M....

    The ONLY reason I know about this bands name is because of internet historian's video on 'rainfurrest', Not a clue why this is in my recommendations though, Watched that video long ago and dont listen to anything remotely like this.

  10. E.... P....

    The sheer talent just blows one away.......go far....you got this

  11. J.... O....

    Well this is one of the positive things about YouTube. Discovering. Where in the world has this Band being. Why are they not yet a World Success. This is so different, this is Visual and musical Art.V

    The Spine and Rabbit have trenchcoats

    Jon:
    _I wanna be a cowboy, baby!_

  19. S.... ....

    Yo silver dude's got some mega range the fuck

  20. G.... ....

    I like how it seems there's a constant breeze on Rabbit as soon as she gets her coat...a breeze that somehow isn't affecting anyone else... 😄

  21. R.... C....

    Whats the name of the guy in the goggle hat?

    R.... C....

    His stage/character name is Rabbit, his real name is Christopher Bennett.

    The hat though

  30. k.... b....

    this song takes me somewhere beautiful

  31. K.... H....

    They looked like they had so much fun making this video. I thought it was hilarious that it looked like the wind was only blowing on Rabbit during the "Epic and so cool" part. They're all just so awesome. But I'm absolutely in love with Rabbit and Spine's voices.

  32. D.... H....

    My favorite!

  33. C.... C....

  38. x.... ....

    The Spine's voice makes zero sense! How the hell can he have such an expanded range?!

  39. T.... h....

    I like how the starting reminds me of the house of the rising sun

  40. b.... ....

    My favorite spg video

  41. Z.... W....

    The spines vocal range is hugeeee

  42. S.... m....

    These guys RocK...

  43. P.... H....

    Classic sound

  44. G.... F....

    I wonder what happen to the other guys

  45. B.... H....

    Vocals   remind  me  of   ZIGGY   STARDUST  for   some   Reason.

  46. B.... H....

    This  was    Recommended    caught   my  Eye,   glad  I   Checked  it  out.   Very  Talented  and   Entertaining.

  47. N.... D....

    Could somebody tell me their names? I know spine but who are the others?

    N.... D....

    It was The Jon (on drums) and Rabbit.

  48. M.... M....

    Borderlands Anyone? And that was fantastic by the way. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿❤

  49. L.... ....

    How can someone NOT love them? Ahhh!

  50. T.... M....

    Haha just noticed that Michael Reed’s Guitar strap falls and he laughs at 5:00.

    T.... M....

    I hadn’t noticed that before and I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve watched this. I was too focused on Rabbit at that point. Ha.

  51. S.... Y....

    4:54
    Are those 5 belts on a robot??

  52. L.... L....

    Spine...❤❤❤

  53. W.... E....

    Dude. I miss this. A lot. I remember when this was new. I was amazed. Id never heard anything like it.

  54. N.... ....

    Goggles(is that rabbit?) looks like the result of programming too much emotion and flavor into your robot. And I enjoy that.

  55. N.... ....

    I would love to see a new music video of this with Zer0~

  56. M.... C....

    ITS SO CRAZY SEEING RABBIT BEFORE HER TRANSITION MY GOD!!!

  57. R.... C....

    Whos the name of the guy with the goggles?

  58. J.... L....

    they look so odd but COOL at the same time.

  59. B.... S....

    My boyfriend introduced me to you bots. Now I'm hooked

  60. C.... J....

    Those mouth shapes though 👌👌👌👌

  61. E.... M....

    Spines voice and range is epic . Rabbits got the opera thing going but the that deep sound of spine is just unmatched.

  62. N.... M....

    You guys... Why did I just discover them in 2019?? 17 yr old me NEEDED this !!
    Welp, better late than never😅

  63. c.... m....

    yo i forgot how much this song slaps

  64. W.... ....

    Steam Powered Giraffe... Awesome band name and a fantastic song. Are they influenced by Klaus Nomi?

  65. j.... ....

    My favorite of theirs I think. Love this song.

  66. J.... D....

    Kinda want a full robo-western album from the Spine

  67. R.... W....

    I envy Spines vocal range

  68. S.... t....

    Always loved the song but I can never watch without being bothered by how extra Rabbit is

  69. m.... ....

    Perfect with out fault

  70. E.... ....

    WHERE HAVE YOU GUYS BEEN?!

    Praise you Internets for leading me down this path. Amen.

  71. R.... ....

    having never seen or heard of this band, i saw the thumbnail and expected something HEAVY. I was very pleasantly surprised

  72. �.... K....

    So, I listened a few songs from you guys about a year ago and I was like 'ok, nice music, funny looks', then I forgot about you. But today a friend of mine shared your Rihanna cover, I listened to it and I completely fall in love with Spine's voice. I ended up listening to your discography on Spotify. So, it's official, you have a new fan. 😍

  73. C.... S....

    I don't know what it is, but I really love this song.

  74. A.... ....

    I'm still in love with Rabbit's trenchcoat and goggles!

    A.... ....

    Im with you, I love the way the trench coat flows.

  75. c.... ....

    anyone else get extreme tally hall vibes from this band??? wish they could’ve done a collab, back when tally hall was still around :’(

  76. m.... o....

    finished reading do androids dream of electric sheep & THIS SONG KEPT PLAYING IN MY BRAIN LIKE THE WHOLE READ COULDNT STOP

  77. Z.... F....

    I really love the first half of the song, but hate the second half. Seriously who decided to stop writing lyrics and just keep repeating the phrase "epic, and so cool"

  78. n.... ....

    I really want Rabbit's coat. It's epic and so cool.
    But really.

  79. y.... s....

    love me some cowboy robots

  80. M.... 3....

    Stumbled across a very interesting song. Robot Cowboy Quartet? Didn't know that I needed it.

  81. K.... ....

    among other things, they just are good singers (for some reason I'm remembered Queen)

  82. n.... ....

    Enough belts to be in a JRPG. I like it.

  83. e.... ....

    Still the greatest song on the internet.

  84. p.... ....

    Still their best song 4 me!

  85. M.... B....

    Proof once again good music is out there, you just have to look for it!

  86. G.... �....

    when i first saw those guys, i really thought they were 3d renders

  87. L.... W....

    Currently I'm not going through a very happy time in my life, but their music just makes me oddly happy on the inside. Also: Can someone please point them all out to me with names? I only know The Spine

  88. A.... C....

    Who else got Detroit: Become Human vibes from this song?

  89. H.... O....

    I like how all the songs I've listened to so far are just "I am robot, I contain oil"

  90. M.... T....

    Even at 150% speed it is pretty good.

    M.... T....

    yo you’re right
    also 125% speed kinda reminds me of Nightcore almost lol

  91. E.... ....

    woah this kind of sounds like ghost

  92. J.... A....

    Man spines a badass

  93. y.... h....

    Automatons pretending to be humans pretending to be automatons
    This is beyond science

  94. �.... ....

    Um I just sang the whole song like I listen to it every day and I haven't heard it it years wtf how

  95. C.... S....

    Rabbit's costume was so on point back then. I mean I understand the change, but the top hat, vest, and face paint looked bad ass.

  96. V.... P....

    Thank you Misters and Miss Giraffe. Very cool.

  97. P.... ....

    So fucking beautiful

  98. B.... B....

    This was my old town road
