ROBOT WARS

Robot Wars

The robots are fighting.
They don't feel pain.
They bash one another
again and again.

Robots are tough
Robots are mean
Robot Wars!
Don't intervene

They clang when the clash.
They rattle and crunch.
Have head-on collisions
and don't stop for lunch.

Robots are tough
Robots are mean
Robot Wars!
Machine v Machine

But now there's just silence.
Not a robot in sight.
This is what happens
when robots fight.

Robots are crazy
Robots are daft
Robot Wars!
Not one robot left
