"Green-Eyed Mecha" by Matrix Refugee
 
An "A.I." Filk based on " Green Eyed Lady" by Sugarloaf
 
Greeen-Eyed Mecha, handsome Mecha
Strolling slowly towards the moon
Green-eyed Mecha, nightlife Mecha
Soothing every heart that comes
 
Green-eyed Mecha, passion's Mecha
Dressed in black, he exists for life to be
Green-eyed Mecha feels like I never see
Setting souls and lonely lovers free
 
      (Organ solo)

      (long instrumental)
 
Green-eyed Mecha, lover-Mecha
moves the night my heart my soul
Green-eyed Mecha, dancing Mecha
Child of fire, Orga's friend
 
Green-eyed Mecha, passion's Mecha
Dressed in love he exists for life to be
Green-eyed Mecha feels like I never see
Setting souls and lonely lovers free

"Mecha Boy" by Matrix Refugee
 
An "A.I." filk based on "Surfer Girl" by The Beach Boys 
 
Little Mecha little one
Made my heart come all undone
Do you love me, do you Mecha boy?
(Mecha boy, my little Mecha boy.)
 
I have watched you in the woods
Standing under the shady trees
Do you love me, do you Mecha Boy?
(Mecha Boy, Mecha Boy)
 
We could roam the woods together
While our love would grow
In my Tri-Wheel I would take you
Everywhere I go
 
So I say from me to you
I will make your dreams come true
Do you love me, do you, Mecha Boy?
Mecha boy, my little Mecha Boy...
Well
Boy Mecha boy, my little Mecha Boy...
Well
Boy Mecha boy, my little Mecha Boy...
Well
Boy Mecha boy, my little Mecha Boy... (Repeat to fade out...)

"Hey Joe". an "A.I." filk by "Matrix Refugee"
 
Based on "Hey Jude" by The Beatles

Hey Joe, don't make it bad.
Take a sad song and make it better.
Remember to let him into your heart,
Then you can start to make it better.
 
Hey Joe, don't be afraid.
You were made to go out and get him.
The minute you let him under your skin,
Then you begin to make it better.
 
And anytime you feel the pain, hey Joe, refrain,
Don't carry the world upon your shoulders.
For well you know that it's a fool who plays it cool
By making his world a little colder.
 
Hey Joe, don't let me down.
You have found him, now go and get him.
Remember to let him into your heart,
Then you can start to make it better.
 
So let it out and let it in, hey Joe, begin,
You're waiting for someone to go on with.
And don't you know that it's just you, hey Joe, you'll do,
The movement you need is on your shoulder.
 
Hey Joe, don't make it bad.
Take a sad song and make it better.
Remember to let him under your skin,
Then you'll begin to make it
Better better better better better better, oh.
 
Na na na, na na na na, na na na, hey Joe... (Repeat to fade...)

(Music commences)
 
Mr Williamson:
"Oh there's no fire in the fireplace, there's no carpet on the floor
Don't try to check your email, there's no Net access anymore
But if the road's been kind of bumpy and you need to rest a spell"
 
All:
"Well, welcome home, to Shangri-La Hotel."
 
(Dialogue) Mr. Williamson: "Hey, how you folks fixing to pay?"

Cause the bellhop mecha's busted and the elevator's stuck"

"So if you don't mind friendly lover-bots and can learn to stand the yells"
 
All:
"Well, welcome home, to the Shangri-La Hotel."

And there are mice (there are mice)"

"You got every kind of Mecha,"
 
Hal:
"You got every kind of pest,"
 
Mr. Williamson:
"But we treat 'em all as equals just like any other guest"
 
The Barflies:
"Though you're cleaner than the others, still as far as we can tell,"
 
All:
"You'll fit right in at Shangri-La Hotel"

Is she walkin' back to me?
Yeah, she's walkin' back to me
Oh, oh, pretty Mecha

"Stayin' Online"
An "A.I." filk by "Matrix Refugee",
 
Based on  ''Stayin' Alive'' by The Bee Gees
          
Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk,
I'm a woman's Mecha—no time to talk.
Music loud and women warm, I've been kicked around
Since I was built.
And now it's all right. It's OK.
And you may look the other way.
We can try to understand
The Rouge City effect on man.
 
Chorus:
Whether you're a Mecha or whether you're an Orga,
You're stayin' online, stayin' alive.
Feel Rouge City quakin' and everybody shakin', people,
Stayin' online, stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' online, stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' online.
 
Well now, I get rebooted and I get reloaded,
And if I don't get either, I really try.
Got the wings of heaven on my shoes;
I'm a dancin' Mecha, I just can't lose.
You know it's all right. It's OK.
I'll reboot to another day.
We can try to understand
The Rouge City effect on man.
 
Whether you're a Mecha or whether you're an Orga,
You're stayin' online, stayin' alive.
Feel Rouge City quakin' and everybody shakin', humans,
Stayin' online, stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' online, stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' online.
 
I’m goin' nowhere. Somebody help me.
Somebody help me, yeah.
I’m goin' nowhere. Somebody help me, yeah.
Stayin' online.
