Steam Powered Giraffe (SPG) is a musical project formed in San Diego in 2008 that is popular in the steampunk subculture. Led by twin siblings David Michael Bennett and Bunny Bennett, its two remaining original members, the act combines sketches, pop culture references, improvised comedic dialogue, and original music.

(Verse) Bm Ever since the first time I opened my eyes D I've awakened to the same thing F#mBm Other automaton friends roughly built like me
Bm The first time I opened my mouth to speak D Steam escaped to the air F#mBm And black oil dripped from my lips and onto the ground
Bm Well daylight struck a chord with my photo-receptors D Night greeted me with a sea of stars F#mBm Our eyes all flashed blues and greens through the night
(Chorus) N/C It's just our BmD Aaaaaaaaaah Automatonic F#m Electronic A Harmonics
(Verse) Bm People are soaring always exploring D Higher than they've ever been before F#m But we are still down here feet on the ground near A What will rise us up with the rest
Bm Our thoughts are quixotic stark and robotic D mechanical in nature all the time F#m And pulses are firing in our head wiring A guiding all our actions and beings
(Chorus) N/C It's just our BmD Aaaaaaaaaah Automatonic F#m Electronic A Harmonics
(Bridge) ABm I am not an unimaginable thing DF#m My thoughts are tangible though they're full of springs ABm I don't have the heart to send you untruthful words DF#m My skin is cold to the touch and made from the earth
N/C They say
BmDF#m Oh oh it's so down but baby its sound A makes your worries cease to pound BmDF#m And oh maybe it's alright 'cause baby it fights A For some time just to be held tight
BmDF#m And oh maybe it's not wrong 'cause it sings a lovely song A One that drifts on for so long BmDF#m And oh baby let's not lie it's eyes are alive A And pointed up shining light to the sky
(Chorus 2) N/C It's just our BmD Aaaaaaaaaah Automatonic F#m Electronic A Harmonics
BmF#mA Epic and so cool BmF#mA Epic and so cool BmF#mA Epic and so cool BmF#mA Epic and so cool
