Story Behind The Song

This song is my homage to Chuck Berry, the original rapper. It was inspired by seeing Chuck Berry talking on TV about how, when he started out, he wanted to write songs that kids would listen to, and so he wrote about school, girls and cars. I updated Chuck's approach by writing about, well, school, girls and computers. Cyborg Love is track 2 on Jerry Brown's debut 2009 CD "You Are Thunder."

Song Description

Ditched by girl friend, singer finds virtual Cyborg Love via wet wire to silicon based lovers on the Web and in the Matrix, becoming a wet wire junkie that "needs a hit of Cyborg Love." The incredible lead guitar riffs are performed by the legendary Ike Woods, whose Miami-based band won the "Monterrey Battle of the Blues Bands" several years ago. Definitions: cyborg = fusion of human and artificial intelligence being; wet wire = interface between human brain and computer; Apple jack = jack inserted through port into human brain to create computer connection.

Lyrics

Cyborg Love
Words and Music by Jerry Brown

Listnin' to my DJ, suckin' on my automated thumb,
Girl friend ditched me, feeling lost and numb,
Goin' to the Matrix, need a taste of cyborg love

Chorus:

Well it's cy, cy, cy-borg love...baby,
Sigh, sigh, sigh-borg love...gimmie,
Cy, cy, cy-borg love...I need,
Sigh, sigh, sigh-borg love
I'm a wet-wired junkie, need a hit of cyborg love

Bought a sex machine on eBay, hoped it would do the trick,
120 r-p-ms, left me feelin' sick,
Gonna' Google girls, gone-wild, I gotta' get my kicks.

Chours and Instrumental

My first day at college, they stole my Penthouse stack,
Stuck a portal in my skull, gave me an Apple jack,
Found a harem on my hard drive, I'm never coming back.

Chours:

I gotta' a silicon lover, you outta' to see her reel and rock,
I plug into her on Tuesdays, we out run the cyber cops
She's a silver surfer, she never wants to stop.

Chorus - last line 2x
