No I wasn't. In the future the whole world is controlled by a supreme being using an army of robots (a.k.a. Mr.Roboto) to keep everyone in their place. I was on a mission to have a rock concert and save the world, but rock music wasn't allowed, so I was locked up. Luckily I was able to desguise myself as one of the robots and was able to escape to make it to the concert. In the end the world was saved thanks to the power of rock.

Kilroy was here is an American popular culture expression, often seen in graffiti. Its origins are open to speculation, but recognition of it and the distinctive doodle of "Kilroy" peeking over a wall is almost ubiquitous among U.S. residents who lived during World War II.

One theory identifies James J. Kilroy, an American shipyard inspector, as the man behind the signature. During World War II he worked at the Bethlehem Steel Shipyard in Quincy, Massachusetts, where he claimed to have used the phrase to mark rivets he had checked. The builders, whose rivets J. J. Kilroy was counting, were paid depending on the number of rivets they put in. They found that they could erase the chalk marks J. J. Kilroy made and get paid double. When J.J. Kilroy decided to use a yellow crayon, which was harder to erase, the cheating stopped. At the time, ships were being sent out before they had been painted, so when sealed areas were opened for maintenance, soldiers found an unexplained name scrawled. Thousands of servicemen may have potentially seen his slogan on the outgoing ships and Kilroy's omnipresence and inscrutability sparked the legend. Afterwards, servicemen could have begun placing the slogan on different places and especially in new captured areas or landings. At some later point, the graffiti (Chad) and slogan (Kilroy was here) must have merged. (Michael Quinion. 3 April 1999.[1])

According to the story behind the song, Kilroy was a former rockstar who has been imprisoned and escapes using a disguise (Mr. Roboto).

Kilroy was a dedicated resistance fighter for rock musical expression--something heavily suppressed. They tried to mechanize him--but failed in their efforts.....or did they????
