Liner Notes
February 2nd, 2025, marks World Ukulele Day. To celebrate, as I do every year, I tried to combine my lo-fi post-apocalyptic songs with the ukulele. This is how the song "Mr. Robot Plays the Ukulele" came to be. I hope you enjoy listening to it.

Lyrics
Mr. Robot Plays the Ukulele
I dreamed yesterday of the future Maximum post-apocalypse Tin, steel robots They took care of us tenderly
They read us books, said goodnight They patted our heads, did the shopping They played the ukulele and cooked deliciously They were our best people
Mr. Robot, Mr. Robot Play quietly for me and sing About the end of the world as we know it About love from funny romantic movies
Once again, repeat Once again, repeat
I woke up happy I was no longer worried about destruction I had dreams again And I believed in friendship
Tin souls and processors Safety and complete trust A robot that is a therapist Takes out the trash and makes coffee
Mr. Robot, Mr. Robot Play quietly for me and sing About the end of the world as we know it About love from funny romantic movies
Once again, repeat Once again, repeat
Mr. robot, mister robot Play softly to me and sing About the end of the world as we know it About love from funny romantic movies
Once again, repeat Once again, repeat
Tell me softly That it will be a beautiful day Smile beautifully And take my hand, take
Mr. robot, mister robot Play softly to me and sing About the end of the world as we know it About love from funny romantic movies
Once again, repeat Once again, repeat

This is amazing. I love Mr Robot. I love the tune, but mostly it has a very confusing-on-purpose Mr Robot vibe. Like, it has that vulnerable-he's-fooling-himself-and-he-knows-it thing that is the essence of why anyone loves Mr Robot.

This all goes together well, catchy chorus and lyrics are descriptive.

Great production over all. The center warbly strummed section transitions well into the wide spread more synthy backing. Great singing, too.

Loving it, intro too, cool textures in it while very vocal forward, but I gotta say it’s all blended just right, playing with the rhythm in ..I mean, I kinda just freaking love it!

This was awesome. The video must be A.I. generated? Lovely singing and again, I really dig the lofi elements. Terrific music a delightful treat.
