The context to the song is that a terrible disaster had happened on Earth that cause humans to launch spaceships into space with the hope of finding habitable planets where mankind could live. Those spaceships were piloted by robots. The robot that this song is about was supposed to rendezvous with another robot (a lady robot?) who is the object of his affections but she has not been in touch.
(Verse 1)
I?ve been spending my days
Waiting for you,
Thinking of all the things
That we could do.
(Thinking of all the things we could do)
(Verse 2)
Won?t you show me your face
Stop hiding,
I will open up my heart to you
I will open my heart
And show my soul.
(Refrain)
Here I am
(Here I am)
Just a robot in a can,
Here I am
(Here I am)
I?ll be your greatest fan.
(Chorus 1)
I?m calling you
So far away
Give me a call.
I?m calling you
Under the cosmic
Give me a call
Won?t you give me a call
I?m so alone
Oh, won?t you give me a call
I?m so alone.
(Verse 3)
Been such a long time
Thinking of you
With no company
Been such a long time
Thinking of you.
I?ve been talking to myself
Can no-one hear me?
I?ve been talking to myself
Can no-one hear me?
(Refrain)
Here I am
(Here I am)
Just a robot in a can,
Here I am
(Here I am)
I?ll be your greatest fan.
(Chorus 2)
I?m calling you
So far away
Give me a call.
I?m calling you
Under the cosmic
Give me a call
I?m calling you
But there?s no one to
Give me a call
I?m calling you
Won?t you pick up the phone
Give me a call.
Won?t you give me a call
I?m so alone
Oh, won?t you give me a call
I?m so alone.
(Bridge)
Planet Earth is gone
Hear the dying scream,
A hundred spaceships ventured forth
To re-launch the human dream.
(Chorus 3)
I?m calling you
So far away in space,
I?m calling you
Under the cosmic rays,
I?m calling you
But there?s no-one to
Give me a call.
I?m calling you
Won?t you pick up the phone
Give me a call.
Won?t you give me a call
I?m so alone,
Won?t you give me a call
I?m so alone,
Won?t you give me a call
I?m so alone.
