Tom: Em

G                        Dm    C
   Daniel can't find his money
                       Cm  C
He don't know where it is
G                           Bm
  I think it's a little bit funny
         C
Just how sad of a life
      Cm
This poor boy lives
         G
He is lost
            Bm
And he's afraid

No, I'm not
             C
He's never felt so alone
             Cm
In this whirlwind he calls home

I need my wallet, please
      G
His rage is burning brightly
        Bm
It's buried deep within
       C
His flesh is barely human
           Cm
It's a cybertronic skin

What?
     Em
Rippling robot muscles
        D
Could take down dinosaurs
        C
But speaking of extenction
        A
Here comes a meteor

Oh, wow
         G
With jetpack cyborg boosters
     B
He flies across the sea
       C
He launches high into the sky
    Cm
To save both you and me

Dude-
Em
The meteor aproaches
        D
The asteroid is here
       C
The people of earth tremble
       A
They cower in their fear
       G
But cyborg Daniel races
     Bm
He laughs in danger's face (ha ha!)
      C
As mother nature's biggest threat
      Cm
Is hurled from outer space
       Em
The meteor then shapeshifts
 D
Into a cosmic hurdle
        C
An adolescent, omnipresent
  D                   A
Mutant Chaos turtle

(You know what I'm saying?

No, I don't.)
      G
And now our Mecha-Daniel
       Bm
Takes on this mega beast
       C
He slices him and dices him
      Cm
And makes a turtle feast (Yum)
        Em
The creature shrieks in horror
         D
Yet.. doesn't make a sound
     C
For if you know astronomy
       Cm
No soundwaves can be found

(Space is a vacuum)
      G
And Sexy Robot Danielâ„¢
      Bm
He lands on earth once more
          C
His motherland protected
        Cm
Now stronger than before
       Em
The people all adore him
        D
They worship this machine
      C
The pope blessed him, Anointed...
             G     C        G
He's been knighted by the queen...

Wow. That was a good sta-
        G
Turns out the queen's an alien (Oh my god.)
      Bm
And she has laser eyes
       C
She tricked the whole entire world
       Cm
In wrinkly disguise
