Robo-Buddy
The track opens with a mono, ribbon-mic-filtered Mid-Atlantic male narrator, his voice crisp yet grit-laced from gentle tape distortion and compression, set squarely in the EQ’s midrange. Layered under are vinyl crackle, faint tape hiss, and a low film projector hum. Occasional retro chimes and whooshes accent the narrator’s over-enunciated cheer, each line hitting with archival clarity and old-time tape warmth

Lyrics
Verse 1
Is your child bored again?
Try Robo-Buddy
The only companion that never eats, sleeps, or files complaints
Whether it's tea parties at dawn or fencing practice after dinner
Robo-Buddy's always ready
And always obedient
He remembers birthdays, resets after crying
And even thanks you when you trip him
Chorus
Robo-Buddy because real friends just aren't s-s-s-scalable
(B-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b)
What's it doing?
That's how daddy does it
Bridge
He'll get used to it, used to it, used to it
He'll get used to it, used to it, used to it
He'll get used to it
Outro
I did good, good, good, good
I did good
I did good, good, good, good
I did good
Is your child bored again?
Try Robo-Buddy
The only companion that never eats, sleeps, or files complaints
Whether it's tea parties at dawn or fencing practice after dinner
Robo-Buddy's always ready
And always obedient
He remembers birthdays, resets after crying
And even thanks you when you trip him
Robo-Buddy because real friends just aren't s-s-s-scalable
(B-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b)

That's how daddy does it
