Mascot 3000:

Rachael flees the mad house
runs into the evening breeze
she doesn't know it now
but she is heading straight for me

beyond the gates, an old man waits
as if he knew she'd come
he holds me in his hands
tells her to take me and to run

Connor:

I'm sorry for your sorrows
you think that we don't know you
but oh my dear i've watched you for so long

Arcadia Corp is closed down
but some parts they are still round
and they want you to have this to call on

This tablet can be your guide
the very first true AI
the Mascot type 3000 and it's yours

Perhaps i'll see you once more
the hope of my heart you are
good luck, i hope it's you we've waited for

Mascot 3000:

Rachael flees the madman
but with me in her arms
scared and lost, together
we begin life on the run

information and advice
i give her as we go
i'm just so glad to be with her
in a tale all of our own

Together then a few days hence
we find a place to hide
Inside the Shopogopolis
where we sit tight and reside

They only know they are someplace foreign, cut off from whatever homeland they once had, utterly alone in an incomprehensible world. Some picnics they listen to Paul Shapera. ... more
