Two Devices Connected
03:47

I connect, you connect
We're both waiting for what's next
Pregnant silences
You crush candy, I scroll doom
Two worlds within one room
Separate sciences
We can't speak at the same time
We can't both be out of line
Evenings dissipate
Either one of us or none
Bite the bullet, jump the gun
Shot down anyway
Do you want to pair with me?
I'm turned on, full battery
Male to female, let us dock
Until our connection drops
Every night, in my dreams
You're touching my USB-C
Let's do the unexpected
Two devices connected
To connect
Go to the Bluetooth menu
On your mobile device
And select my product from the list

My Big Event
04:00
|
|||
I’d like to invite you to my big event
Please see the link below
Covid’s meant it’s held online
But we hope you choose to show
It’s held on Teams as the company
Hasn’t bought a Zoom account
Any queries, direct them to me
Please just give me a shout
Expected start is half past nine
We’ll try and keep it tight
Check software ahead of time
And you should be alright
But you haven’t saved your password
and your microphone is on
and your laptop needs an update
and your neighbour plays the drums
Good morning everyone, thanks for joining the call
If you could all turn your microphones off, we should be ready to start shortly.
Thanks for all joining the call
Direct questions to the chat
We spoke before, you may recall
At the last event we were at
I’m here to give an update
I’m here to speak to you
I’m here in isolation
If you will allow me, then I will outline
The purpose of the call
I won’t just read right off the screen
But be sure to process it all
If you’re not prepared, then slides will be shared
But take notes for your reference
For those of you
Familiar to
Teams and for veterans
But my microphone is basic
And my banter’s cold and forced
My filter is a cat and
You’ve signed up for the wrong call

Trapped (In An Egg)
03:28
|
|||
Taking time to tell laments
And all I want is compliments
Seeking shelter from a storm
Somewhere light that's safe and warm
Barely breathing, bruised and beat
Shadows my only retreat
Making meals of whines and moans
All that I have ever shown
And I'm trying to keep it cool
And the ground under my feet
I'm trapped inside an egg
So I must admit defeat (trapped in an egg!)
Quicken quicksand cover me
What I am and what I'll be
Or else treat me like a king
Tell me I don't have to sing
Give me throne and give me crown
Or just leave me here to drown
Let me drown or let me shine
Come on in the water's fine
And I'm trying to keep it cool
And the ground under my feet
I'm trapped inside an egg
So I must admit defeat (trapped in an egg!)

Very Wet Strudel
01:22
|
|||
Slap, squish, squelch, smack
Glug, glug, glug, glug
Boy! What a wet pastry!
Slopping out of the oven
Drink it down
With custard
Soggy bottom
Soggy top as well
Paul and Prue
Take one look at it
Disappointment
That's raw!
Very wet Strudel
Underbaked dessert
Needed at least
Ten more minutes
