Computer Girl Lyrics

Computer girl
My computer girl
(This is a recording)
She's got no arms
She's got no legs
For computers have no limbs
(This is a recording)

At first
She did not work right
At first
She did not function
I took a hammer
I took some nails
I went hammer, hammer, hammer
Rat tat tat
Fix fix fix

My computer girl
My computer girl
(This is a recording)

Well, if you'd like
A date with her
Stick an IBM card
In her stomach
Oh, if you'd like
A date with her
Place an IBM card
In her stomach
Well, if you'd like
A date with my computer girl
You gotta take an IBM card
And place it in her stomach
That's what
That's what you gotta do
Oh, computer girl

Computer girl
My computer girl

  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
