[[Weezer]] demoed "Show Me Who You Are" at [[Cello Studios]] around late December of [[2003]] through early January [[2004]]. Though this version does not exist in fan circulation, solo demos recorded by [[Rivers Cuomo]] at S.I.R. Rehearsal Studios in Los Angeles were released in [[2020]] as part of the digital compilation ''[[Alone IX: The Make Believe Years]]''. An initial demo featured lyrics largely the same as those of "Prodigy Lover" (albeit with a new chorus), though the song underwent at least two lyrical revisions before being rewritten as "Stupid Robot"/"Happy Robot"/"[[I'm a Robot]]."
