Real Boy

A Real Boy is a song from "A Real Boy" in which Doofenshmirtz's robot, Norm, explains his dreams of being a real boy.

Lyrics
Women Singers: He wants to be a real boy (He wants to be a real boy)

He wants to be a real boy (Real boy, yeah)

Norm: I'm a lonely orphan robot

Just a scrap metal tower

A misfired piston

Run on squirrel power

Women Singers: His galvanized insides

Can feel no joy

He wants to be a real boy

Norm: I wanna be a real boy!

Rappers: Yeah!

Norm: Not a titanium toy

Don't give my battery flattery

What I want is more grey matter-y

Rappers: A brain, some veins and some arteries!

Norm: I got a squirrel on a treadmill where my heart should be

If I was real, (Rappers: you could feel!) I could really emote

Instead of shorting out whenever he sits on the remote

I want a dad (Rappers: a father!) someone I can call pop

Someone to take me out for malteds at the soda shop

Someone to take me on a fishing trip or teach me how to ride a bike

Who'll pat me on the head and ask me "how you doin', tyke?"

Women Singers and Rappers: How you doin', tyke?

Norm: Well, I'm fine, all things considered

Wanna be a real boy but I don't wanna sound embittered

But thanks for asking, seriously!

Background information

 * Appropriately, given both the rap genre and the fact that this song is about a robot, this song features various examples of Auto-Tune, a pitch-correction technology that is frequently used in sung portions of hip-hop songs to give singers a unique, almost robotic-sounding tinge to their vocals.
 * Norm mentions it is powered by squirrels ("Phineas and Ferb-Busters!").
 * The female singers were Olivia Olson's voice
 * This the first song where Norm's voice is involved.
 * The only difference of this and the demo version is that this version doesn't have the final verse.

Continuity

 * The music starts relaxing then turns into a rap like the song Spa Day ("Spa Day").
 * After the singers say "how you doin' tyke" the rhythm is similar to There's a Platypus Controlling Me ("Brain Drain").
 * Many people from Squirrels In My Pants appear during the song ("Comet Kermillian").
