I DON'T KNOW WHAT CONVALESCING MEANS
BUT THANKS SO MUCH FOR BEING NICE TO ME
PASS THE BUCKET CAUSE IT'S TIME TO SPEW
I HOPE I DON'T PASS THIS THING ON TO YOU
--
DON'T KNOW IF YOU CAN TELL
BUT I DON'T FEEL VERY WELL!
BEEN SENT FOR LOTS OF TESTS
AND I'VE BEEN HAVING LOTS AND LOTS OF REST
I'VE GOT NO SENSE OF SMELL!
I DON'T FEEL VERY WELL
MY STOMACH HURTS, DON'T WANT TO EAT AT ALL
BEEN HAVING LOTS OF PARACETAMOL!
--
CALLED IN SICK, THE BOSS HE NEARLY DIED
BUT I'M ENTITLED TO SELF-CERTIFY
STAY AT HOME AND WATCH SOME SHIT TV
IT'S NOT SO BAD IF YOU STAY HOME WITH ME

SHE'S INTO MEMES
AND YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS
IT MEANS SHE UNDERSTANDS THE TEENS
SHE'S YOUR TICKET INTO THAT SCENE
WELL IN YOUR DREAMS!
CAUSE IF YOU DON'T KNOW THE MEMES
SHE WON'T SHARE WHAT'S ON HER SCREEN
SHE'S REALLY KIND OF MEAN
--
AN ENCYCLOPEDIC REFERENCE
OF BULLSHIT WITH NO PURPOSE
BUT WITH JUST A SINGLE WORD
TO HER HUNDRED MILLION FOLLOWERS
SHE WILL HAVE YOU
SHE WILL HAVE YOU KILLED!

MY COMPUTER'S GOT FILES AND FOLDERS
IT GETS SLOWER AND SLOWER AS IT GETS OLDER
ONE DAY IT BROKE BUT I KNOW HOW TO SOLDER
FORGET ANDROID OR IOS
REAL COMPUTERS ARE THE BEST
IPADS ARE A BORE
THEY DON'T USE FILES AND FOLDERS ANY MORE
I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO
IT'S FILES AND FOLDERS 22!
IT'S GOT THE LATEST OPERATING SYSTEM
AND A DEVELOPER PREVIEW OF THE NEXT EDITION
AND THE MARKET RIVAL ON ANOTHER PARTITION
I'LL GIVE YOU A LIST OF WHAT'S INSIDE
IT'S GOT AN SSD AND A BLU-RAY DRIVE
AND IT'S GOT RAM OF THE MAXIMUM SIZE
FORGET ANDROID OR IOS
REAL COMPUTERS ARE THE BEST
IPADS ARE A BORE
THEY DON'T USE FILES AND FOLDERS ANY MORE
I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO
IT'S FILES AND FOLDERS 22!
FORGET ANDROID OR IOS

I USED TO WORK WITH A GUY
HE DOESN'T BELIEVE IN OUTER SPACE
I REALLY MEAN IT
HE LITERALLY DOESN'T BELIEVE IN OUTER SPACE
THERE'S JUST THE EARTH AND THE SKY
AND OF COURSE THE EARTH IS FLAT
AND ALL THE SHIT LIKE THAT
OH, THE LOOK OF DISDAIN ON HIS FACE
SHOULD YOU BUT MENTION SPACE
MAN WALKS INTO A BAR
OUCH
HE WENT TO A WEDDING
HE HAD TO LEAVE BEFORE THE ENDING
BECAUSE HE THOUGHT HE SAW THE DEVIL
AND THE DEVIL PLAYS THE KEYBOARDS
IN A WEDDING BAND
AND HE'S GOT SOME VIEWS HE WON'T EXPAND
ABOUT THE FATHERLAND
BACKWARDS, DEAD AND RACIST
PUT YOUR BRAIN IN STASIS
HE DOESN'T BELIEVE IN OUTER SPACE
etc

SOLD MY HOUSE, SOLD MY CAR
SIGNED UP TO BE A BRAIN IN A JAR
ELECTRODES STIMULATING ME
MY IDEAL COMPANY
ANYTHING TO AVOID TALKING ON THE PHONE
FEEL MORE LIKE MYSELF WHEN I'M ALL ALONE
-
GOT NO HANDS, GOT NO FEET
I'M NO LONGER MADE OF MEAT
I FEEL CLEVER, I FEEL WISE
I GOT TWO GOOGLY EYES
ANYTHING TO AVOID TALKING ON THE PHONE
FEEL MORE LIKE MYSELF WHEN I'M ALL ALONE

THE HARDEST PART
OF SEPARATING THE ARTIST FROM THE ART
IS DECIDING
IF SERIES 5* OF THE I.T. CROWD EVEN QUALIFIES AS ART
YOU INCORRECTLY ASSUME
THAT I'D BE ALRIGHT MEETING YOU IN A BATHROOM
HAIRCUT LIKE YOU LOST A BET
BEING A DICK ON THE INTERNET
HOWEVER YOU TURN OUT
DON'T TURN OUT LIKE GRAHAM
WHATEVER YOU DO NEXT
DON'T DO THE SAME AS GRAHAM
I DO MY BEST TO LOOK AWAY
BUT HOLY SHIT THE THINGS YOU SAY
IF GRAHAM ASKS FOR CASH
JESUS CHRIST DON'T PAY HIM
WHEREVER YOU ENGAGE
DON'T ENGAGE WITH GRAHAM
I TRY TO THINK
ABOUT MY LOVELY HORSE
BUT GRAHAM ONLY THINKS
ABOUT WHAT'S IN YOUR SHORTS
* i messed up, there are only four

5PM AND HE'S READY TO GO
SNOOP'S HAD ENOUGH OF THE STUDIO
FINISHES A HARD DAY DOING WHAT HE HAS TO DO
THEN IT'S STRAIGHT BACK HOME TO HIS PLAYSTATION 2
EVERY NIGHT'S THE SAME
HE ONLY NEEDS ONE GAME
EYES TRANSFIXED TO HIS TV
SNOOP DOGG'S BECOME ADDICTED TO GRAN TURISMO 3
WINNING RACES, AMASSING CREDITS
THERE'S A TEXT FROM DRE, BUT HE HASN'T READ IT
"WHERE HAVE YOU GONE? WE'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR YOU"
HE TRIES TO CALL BUT HE NEVER GETS THROUGH
HE'S ALONE
BUT NOT LONELY
CAUSE HE'S GOT SONY
THE BEST RACER YOU'VE EVER SEEN
A FUSION OF MAN AND MACHINE
RACE AFTER RACE AFTER RACE AFTER RACE
HE ACCEPTS NOTHING LESS THAN FIRST PLACE
HE'S GONNA CATCH YOU
HE'S GONNA PASS YOU
HE'S GONNA CRUSH YOU
CRUSH YOU IN A DAIHATSU
ON THE HIGH SPEED RING HE ROLLS
IN ABSOLUTE CONTROL
HE KNOWS WHEN TO BRAKE
WHICH LINES TO TAKE
WHICH CAR TO CHOOSE
SNOOP DOGG CANNOT LOSE
