Terminator Love Song

We somehow missed this music video when it was released last week. Mark Lee had the idea of doing a schmaltzy Terminator love song, in the style of “I Don’t Wanna Miss a Thing” or “Everything I Do (I Do It For You).” Watch the video and read the lyrics after the jump.

Lyrics:
I’m sleeping alone on this cold concrete floor
Another sad night in this sad robot war
On Judgment Day man and machine did collide
But even though billions of people have died

Somewhere out there tonight
You’re hugging your rifle so tight
I’ll find you, somehow, someway
In the rubble that once was L.A.

I’ll be back, no man no machine
Can keep me from you, I’ll always be true
I’ll be back, to finish the fight
And say “hasta la vista” to this lonely night
This vow I must take:
No fate but what we make
I’ll be back

Dogs they are barking, I know something’s wrong
He barely speaks English, his accent’s so strong
The cyborg attack took us by surprise
All the silvery skulls with their glowing red eyes

Skynet has torn us apart
And Judgement Day’s broken my heart
But I’ve got so much to give
Come with me if you want to live

(CHORUS)

I’d travel through time just to hold you again.
I’d take on a world of mechanical men.
Tonight Hunter-Killers keep watch from above
But nothing can Terminate our love.

(CHORUS)

  • Mr. T's Pierogi's
    Lame
  • shameless
    the only good part "he barely speaks english, his accent's so strong"
  • I thought it was well made it's kind of corny but I think that's rather obvious. Not the greatest parody but good concept, worth a watch if bored.
  • Fir3Wolf
    Wasn't very good and about half way through I skipped ahead a bit so it would end quicker. Didn't make me laugh very much either and isn't that what parodies are suppose to do.
  • Is that William Hung?
  • ...
    My thoughts exactly...
    Still, the video was pretty funny
    ...
  • "mock trial with j. reinhold!" lol
  • buckmeister
    truthfully it would work if he was actually singing it and not lipsynching to a track. this sucked ass. that wasn't his voice... his facial expressions were way too exagerrated, not like actual akward funniness. wtf? this is probably mcg's idea of a good viral video.
  • Justin Craig
    That was awesome!!!! So fucking clever!!! Love it.
  • Good work, Arnold ist singing I'll be back ;) but I think, its only a ballad with a strange context.
  • I'd join the others in saying the song is pretty meh but... it got stuck in my head just like a real power ballad would >.<

    Get. Out. Of. My. Head. Mark. Lee.
  • Better than T4.
  • did you guys notice he uses the terminator theme in the last notes of the guitar? listen carefully at 3:41
  • meh
    It would be funnier if some goofy looking comedian were singing it.
  • Seth
    Hilariously contextually unwarranted and inappropriate for the genre.

    Awesome. I love the part when he sings:

    "But I’ve got so much to give
    Come with me if you want to live!"
  • Seth
    Someone has got to help him add a Terminator exoskeleton lip-syncing with him. Or maybe someone should animate a Terminator singing the song, holding a picture of WALL-E or some robot.
