Steam Powered Giraffe - Steam Powered Giraffe Lyrics






Composed of wires
and forged in fires
Our heads bolted on
and geared for a song
The spotlight shines,
gleams in your eyes

All the programming is done (oh yes)
Start-up commands are run (oh they run)
All meters are in the green (all right)
aligning our power core beams (oh aligning)

What we need is something steam powered
What we all need is something steam powered

What we all need is a steam powered giraffe
Steam Powered Gee-raffe
All systems are go
Steam Powered Gee-raffe
We are in control
Steam Powered, Steam Powered
Steam Powered, Steam Powered
Steam Powered, Ste-heam Powered
Steam Powered, Ste-heam Powered
Steam Powered Gee-raffe
We're ready to start
the show
show
show
show

  1. M.... M....

    I’m crying, the love I feel is overwhelming and after 70 hours of constant ticks-inducing vomit-inducing anxiety you lovely people are the only thing that helps. As soon as I stop listening I start doing the ticks and the anxiety comes back. Well Moa how about just not stopping then? Yeah. I won’t. Gonna try to make Christmas candy now. Thank you for being THE BEST IN THE WHOLE WORLD

  6. C.... C....

    I just hear Hatchy saying something that sounds like "our heads are melted on" and I'm like, what are you on Hatchy because I want some. I know he says "our heads bolted on" but it sounds like melted, I'm sorry!

  7. �.... �....

    2:12 - 2:27
    Well Hatchy sucks in this part :D

  8. �.... �....

    These guys need a Cartoon Network TV show.

  9. �.... �....

    The solo at 1:28 - 1:47 is friggin epic.

  10. C.... ....

    Steam Powered Giraffe is filmed in front of a LIVE studio audience <3

    C.... ....

    Studio Killers profile picture, is that you I see?

  11. M.... M....

    So what I'm getting from the art, If I buy all the merch it will summon SPG...... bETTER START SAVING

  12. T.... ....

    If SPG has a Cartoon TV serie, this would be the openning and credits song

    T.... ....

    I think brass goggles would make a nice ending lol

    T.... ....

    They should have a series.

  13. M.... ....

    I love this band :D

  14. A.... S....

    Put this song at 1.5 speed, and you've got yourself the perfect opening song for an animated series.

    A.... S....

    they actually did a Japanese language version of this song later on in the album. :D

    A.... S....

    Omggggg that sounds awesomeeeee

  15. T.... R....

    spine is a table

    T.... R....

    Patatas Voladoras
    Wtf

  16. B.... ....

    I love the artwork with the kid freaking out in his bedroom when SPG showed up. XD

  17. t.... l....

    A little more jazzy and soulful. Reminds me of older rock. Cool. Then it quickly changes and sounds so neat.something I don't ever hear...... that's a good thing!!

  18. F.... t....

    Sadly looking at the calendar and when I have maybe the cash to go to akon and it looks like I won't be able to make it. I really wanted to meet y'all in person but I'll have to wait til next time you guys come through Texas sadly. can't afford a place to stay, probably could make it gas wise. Just gotta triple check. Again thanks for the awesome music. Me and my mother donated 10 when I came out of the mental ward because I listen to your music a lot. Keep up the good work.

  19. p.... t....

    Just a lovely track. Always love it when they bring up them being a mechanical band in song, just seems fitting somehow. :D

  20. D.... i....

    One of my favorite songs! :D

  21. T.... M....

    XD I like how the kid seems fairly calm during this, when they appear in his room.
    I would've been like: "OH MY FUCKING GOD IT'S STEAM POWERED GIRAFFE HOLY SHIT CAN I HUG YOU!?"

    T.... M....

    I'd be like, "Holyshitwhat'shappeningI'mscaredgetheseguysoutofhereIneedassistencehelphelphelphelp,"

  22. S.... ....

    THE NOSTALGIA IS REAL, I went to go see you guys at the worlds fair last week and now I'm having withdrawal sim-toms, thank you for releasing these oldies but goodies, hope to hear from ya soon-REDMATTER GearBOX

  23. N.... K....

    Question: So I've seen you guys do the Japanese version of this track live, but have you guys ever done this version at a concert?

  24. R.... ....

    If I found SPG in my room I would look just like that kid. Even the moon in the corner is smiling! Actually that's kind of scary.

  25. S.... ....

    Ever since I heard this song I've really needed an spg cartoon. Or show. Or something. Or like. half live action and half cartoon diddly. With cool adventures and stuff. Need

    S.... ....

    They kinda have a video game. It's not about them per-say. But they're in it. Steamworld Heist. I own it, and I have to say it's pretty good.

    S.... ....

    If the fucking AQUABATS can get their own cool show, SPG should defiantly be able to.

    S.... ....

    Idk. It might work out, but it could just end up like a cash-grab show that’ll end up on weirdest kids show lists in 20 years

    S.... ....

    Like a Super Mario SuperShow dealio? I'd dig it.

    S.... ....

    They did make a short story based podcast. It's cute but really short. Only 3 ep. Still good, mostly improvised with a loose plot. It's wonderful.

  26. J.... s....

    first SPG album I bought. absolutely no regrets, it's such an awesome album.

  27. S.... S....

    *dances* i'll never get tired of this song! :D

  28. N.... F....

    After all of these wonderful audio only uploads, I get the feeling we're going to meet up with a newly reinvented look on the cast next time we see them again. o.o!!

    N.... F....

    +Nonie Fuss Oh, I hope not!

    N.... F....

    Nope, just Rabbit xD

    N.... F....

    The spine has been the only thing consistent in this whole band

  29. A.... S....

    Rabbit has such a weird and crazy art style.

  30. m.... a....

    jazzy funky groovy

  31. F.... G....

    Love this song!

  32. J.... S....

    I hear QWERTY,but can't tell what he's saying. Can someone please inform me?

    J.... S....

    "Baa ba baa baa ba hatchworth
    Baa ba baa baa ba the spine
    Baa ba baa baa ba rabbit
    Da da da da da michael reed
    Dldlldldldldldlldll matt smith
    Ladies and gentlemen, steve negrete
    Don't you forget the walter girls "

    J.... S....

    very ending "ready to start the show"

    J.... S....

    @Michael Philip Reed Hi Michael!!! <3 :D

    J.... S....

    haiiiii

    J.... S....

    Michael Philip Reed hi Michael-senpai

  33. W.... W....

    This is brilliant! I've not heard much from this album, only Fancy Shoes and Ghost Grinder.

    W.... W....

    +Adrenaline Skater the Killjoy
    I recommend "Honeybee", "Brass Goggles" and "Automatonic Electronic Harmonics".
    Those tend to be the ones everyone likes.

    W.... W....

    +Katoka Karalashvili all of which are from albums prior to this one, oddly enough.

    W.... W....

    @Katoka Karalashvili I've heard all of those, I'm talking about MK III. ^-^

    W.... W....

    @LordDeviant01
    Yeah it's a little odd. I suppose people just expect a more steampunk feel from this band, which is what the first two albums did, but not so much MK III or The Vice Quadrant which went for a more sci-fi feel.
    I mean the new albums are still great but the old Steampunk charm from Album One and the Two Cent Show is hard to beat I guess.

    @Leo Negrete​ Ooh sorry! I thought you said "From this band". Man I should really start proofreding before I say something.
    Sorry again!

    W.... W....

    @Katoka Karalashvili It's completely fine!

  34. K.... S....

    *cri bc rabbit did this and bunny probably can't reach the low notes* at least it's recorded;-;

    K.... S....

    +Steam Powered Giraffe i just saw you guys at anime midwest and i didn't realize how much i actually love this song! especially the "all systems are go...we are in control" lines and really the entire thing haha!

    K.... S....

    While practicing a new voice can make you forget how to make the old one (Bunny even says in one of the videos that she "may be losing it" while trying to make the old voice), note that estrogen or antiandrogens, when taken after puberty, will NOT make your voice change. Male-to-female transgender people need to practice their new voice, contrary to female-to-male ones.

    To put it simply, bunny is probably still able to make her old voice, but it may take some practice for her to basically remember how to do it, a practice I doubt she has any intention of doing.

    K.... S....

    +Naelín Cutuli yes yes I completely understand actually because I saw her in concert recently and she did a hilarious impression of the spine it was spot on and I loved it XD either way her voice is beautiful just more feminine ♡

    K.... S....

    @Kiely Sarah I'm so envious ;_; I'm in the other end of the continent! I would love to see them in concert.

    K.... S....

    +Naelín Cutuli don't worry I'm sure you'll get a chance eventually!!! just plan ahead of time when they perform near you ^×^ or relatively close unless you'd like to travel haha

  35. A.... ....

    towards the end at" the show" part if you listen closely they say Michael Reed and Steve Negretti

  36. S.... ....

    What about the one that goes "SHTEEM POWARD GIRAFFU"

    S.... ....

    omg yes XD

    S.... ....

    The reprise comes later, and that ones in Japanese.

  37. E.... ....

    Love SPG but that would not be a child's reaction if they suddenly appeared in its room at night.

    E.... ....

    It would be mine

    E.... ....

    I would get scared and ride my quesadilla to safety.

    E.... ....

    Look at all the merch on his bed, it totally would be.

    E.... ....

    When I was a little kid, I absolutely loved robots, so I'd be super hyped if I were that kid. ^_^

    E.... ....

    I woulda screamed bloody murder and prayed like hell lol

  38. G.... B....

    It's time to start the show!

  39. C.... J....

    this was the best thing hat happened today

  40. M.... K....

    niiice! i love the ilustation

  41. T.... N....
