TheRobots
I.O.N Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Es el hombre sin piernas
Que me viene a buscar
Yo percibo su ira
Sexo versus metal

Super freaky
El robot nos va a salvar
Super chichi
Robot sexo y litoral

Caminando por china
Transpire un robot
Un casino vacío
Y el amor de los dos

Dromedario de bronce
Transistor imperial
Caminando en formosa
Vio el final de este mal

Super freaky
El robot nos va a salvar
Super chichi
Robot sexo y litoral





Puedo ser tu robot mundial
Puedes ser mi, mi computer low fi

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of I.O.N's song TheRobots depict a surreal and futuristic world where robots and humans coexist. The first few lines talk about a legless man approaching the singer, with the mood of the encounter being somewhat tense; this could be symbolic of the idea that humans are becoming increasingly dependent on technology and losing their own physical abilities. The next few lines seem to indicate a desire for a merging of the organic and the mechanical, with the references to "sex versus metal" and "robot sex and litoral" suggesting a fascination with the possibilities of cyborgs and artificial intelligence.


As the song progresses, more images of a strange and enigmatic world are presented, such as a sweating robot in China and a deserted casino. The repeated references to "super freaky" and "robot saves us" further reinforce the idea of a society that is on the brink of technological revolution, yet uncertain of what it means for their future. The final lines of the song perhaps suggest a desire to fully embrace the integration of man and machine, with the singer offering to be a "worldwide robot" and the listener being their "low-fi computer".


Overall, the lyrics of TheRobots are full of metaphorical and allegorical imagery, presenting a thought-provoking and complex vision of what the future might hold.

¡Hey Pistolero!

So this is like the backstory to Screamers (1995). We invent robots to fight in wars, but eventually the robots keep making better and better robots to fight the enemy.
The book it's based on has a great line at the end of it: (Spoiler for the Book) "a last ironic thought drifted through Hendricks’ mind. He felt a little better, thinking about it. The bomb. Made by the Second Variety to destroy the other varieties. Made for that end alone. They were already beginning to design weapons to use against each other"

Lucas

Ohhhhhh...I remember SCREAMERS. I remember watching it opening weekend back in the day.

Aetila

It's pretty good...a simple flick but with intensive shootings and crazy bots, it's recommended for sf nerds like me, lol.

Abe

For a low budget production I was really happy with the quality of the film. I have no regrets about watching the full film.

C Fox

Yeah i liked it. Can you recommend anything similar ?

Abe

@C Fox Outside The Wire (2021) is similar but with higher production value.
