I didn't write this (though I wish I had), but I thought it was
appropriate considering the Ironic thread. It was done by a group
called extempo, an acapella group that's pretty popular around where I
live. You really should hear the group singing this: it's wonderful.

Bionic

Long time ago,
back in seventy-eight
there was a tv show
and we thought it was great
about a man named steve
who flew a ship in the sky
but when the ship crashed down
you know he almost died
so they made him bionic

Chorus:
Then Oscar said
we have the technology
to build a man
with electric anatomy
we'll do anything
but it won't be free
we'll do it for
six million dollars

Jamie Summers
went out for a drive
she didn't see the truck coming
but still she survivied
now she's tearing phone books
in half with her hands
and she can hear through walls
now how she do that?
Wasn't she bionic?
(i think she was)

CHORUS:
And Oscar said
we have the technology
to build a woman
with electric anatomy
she'll do anything
but it won't be free
She'll do it for
six million dollars

Every show is the same
Steve and Jamie fighting crime
'cause it just don't pay
They're leaping buildings
and breaking chains
Eval Kneeval came
to help Jamie put an end
to all the pain
and Steve and Sasquatch did the same

The plot grows stale
and the ratings drop
so the producers got creative
and they brought in the dog
it had electronic legs
and jaws like a vice
and when Steve and Jaime got married
you know it was throwing the rice
'cause I think it was bionic

and I think
that's a little too bionic
and yeah I really do think

CHORUS:
That Oscar said
we have the technology
to build a family
with electric anatomy
they'll do anything
but it won't be free
we'll do it for
six million dollars

REPEAT:
And Oscar said
we have the technology
to build a family
with electric anatomy
should have drawn the line
at Steve and Jamie
but they did it for
six million dollars

'There once was a woman bionic
Whose story was rather ironic.
When a counterpart kissed her,
She blew a transistor.
Now relations are strictly platonic.'

Sorry, just had to get that off my chest. :)
