Artificial Man Lyrics
Scene: After his capture, Flash is taken to a secret hideout to have
His brain cleansed, and his mind conditioned
Flash, Mr. Black and the Mad Scientist sing:
Flash: I can't believe it's happening
I just want to stay the way that I am
I don't want to live a lie in an artificial world
Mr Black: Let's build an antiseptic world
Full of artificial people
Cure all diseases, conquer pain
And monitor the human brain
And see what thoughts you're thinking
Observe your feelings
Secret fears
Controlling everything you say and do
And we will build a master race
To live within our artificial world
Tell it to the people all across the land
We're going to build an artificial man
With the physique of a Tarzan
And the profile of a Cary Grant
A superior being
Totally made by hand
Throw out imperfection
Mould you section by section
Gonna make you the ultimate creation
Flash: I can visualise the day
When the world will be controlled by artificial people

But I don't want to live a lie in an artificial world
Mr Black: Tell the world that we finally did it
Made a man that's totally programmed
Preconditioned thoughts and emotions
Push-button artificial man
Did you ever want to live forever?
Well here's your chance to be a total automaton
'Cos we've improved on God's creation
An outdated homo sapien
Make you taller if you want it
Make your hair grow longer if you need it
If it doesn't exist then I guess we can breed it
There'll be no disagreements
We'll dedicate our lives to achievements
And organise your life and keep it totally planned
Flash: I can visualise the day
When the world will be controlled by artificial people
But I don't want to live a lie in an artificial world
Mr Black Tell the world we finally did it
And Mad Modified the population
Scientist:Put your senses and your mind
Under constant observation
Even when you're dreaming
Replaced your nose, heart and lungs
So shake me with your artificial hand
We went and built a master race
To live within our artificial world
