Lyrically, Robot World addresses man's alienation from his fellow citizens due to the pervasive influence of computers/ machines/ virtual reality. Hence the album title, and the reason why it is generally agreed to be a concept album. Partial lyrics to the title track are printed in the booklet.
"Be on Time" and "Get Lost" had been previously released in early 7" versions as "We Know" and "The Unseen," respectively. (They were also compiled on the The Aim CD EP.) "EIP" and "Robot World" were also released on the B.E.I.P. CD EP, along with two Vortura tracks.
