E5
Grow the nanobots

[Chorus]
E            A
Grow the nanobots up
E                A
Grow them in the cracks in the sidewalk
E            A
Wind the nanobots up
E                A
Wind them up and ask them a question

E                A
Raise the yellow bots up
E                 A
Raise them up and make them respect us
E                 A
Wind the marching bots up
E                B
Wind them up and wish them away

[Verse 1]
E                 A
What with all the hullabaloo
E                 A
We very nearly forgot about you
E                             A
Now all the old troubles will soon be at an end
E                           A                    B       A
And all the new ones will begin when we send the signal
       E              B
To the newborn citizenship
            E       A
Of the micronations
        E                 B
Sleeper cells awaken, now this is your time
E               A                   E         A
Hear the voices calling to their confederates
E            A                        E
See the tiny figures stretching their limbs
A
Stand back and watch them

[Chorus]
E            A
Grow the nanobots up
E                A
Grow them in the cracks in the sidewalk
E            A
Wind the nanobots up
E                B
Wind them up and wish them away

[Verse 2]
E                        A
The sun is rising in the wrong place
        E                             A
I would decorate the room but there's no more space
E                        A
All I see is pictures of matchstick men
  E                    A                          E     A
I turn my back for two minutes and they've grown again

[Pre-Chorus]
            E    A
Rearranging beds
               E        A
Eating what's available
                E     A
In some hand-me-downs
               E
Making do with leftovers
            A
Bunking up, sharing comic books
E                  A                    B
Sitting three-deep on each other's laps
                 E                C#m
In a van stacked up on other vans
             A     B
Driving on a tidal wave where they

[Chorus]
E            A
Grow the nanobots up
E                A
Grow them in the cracks in the sidewalk
E            A
Wind the nanobots up
E                B
Wind them up and wish them away

E                A
Raise the yellow bots up
E                 A
Raise them up and make them respect us
E                 A
Wind the marching bots up
E                A                  B      A
Wind them up and get them to send a signal
       E              B
To the newborn citizenship
            E       A
Of the micronations
        E
Sleeper cells awaken now
B                          E
This is your, this is your time
