[track: technical-chopper-rap, industrial-trap, glitch-hop, 84 bpm] [vocal: male rapper, percussive non-melodic flow, cocky conversational delivery] [Intro] [Sparse 808, dry synth] [Spoken, amused] They told me to stop flirting with the printer. That's a crazy thing to put in an email. Anyway. [Beat drops] [Verse 1] [Loose swagger, clipped consonants] Badge swipe, bad tie, coffee with a chemical aftertaste Third floor, whole department running at a frantic pace Deadlines, red signs, everybody in a panic Then I hear a motor purring by the filing cabinet [Spoken] Hold up. [Double-time burst] Automatic document assembly, double-sided, collate-ready High-resolution, quiet operation, timing steady Thirty pages every minute, that's a serious machine And that little blinking light was looking directly at me! [Spoken] I know what I saw. Black ink, glass top, all the specifications Caught a little paper tray, reconsidering relations Never been the type to fraternize inside the corporation But she printed out a test page and I nearly lost my patience! I.T. said, "That's a printer." I said, "I got eyes." He said, "Why you dressed up?" I said, "Mind your business, guy." Fresh cartridge, fresh paper, fully stocked inventory I don't need a love letter, let the output tell the story She can scan a hundred documents and never lose the plot [Beat cut] Can your girlfriend do that? [Spoken] Didn't think so. [Pre-Chorus] [Dry call-and-response, no melody] "Low toner." Got it. "Load paper." Done. "Cover open." Whoa. [Spoken] Moving a little fast, aren't we? [Chorus] [Clipped percussive chant, no melody] HELLO, WORLD! GREEN LIGHT! SCAN THAT! TWO SIDES! RUN IT BACK! PRINT STACKS! I.T. AT THE DOOR? TELL 'EM RELAX! HELLO, WORLD! COPY THAT! HR ON THE PHONE? I'LL CALL 'EM BACK! NO SMALL TALK! NO SECOND GUESS! THIRTY PAGES A MINUTE! [Spoken] That's impressive. [Instrumental Break] [Bouncing 808, mechanical glitch accents] [Verse 2] [Conversational swagger, sudden fast pockets] Break-room toaster giving off a different heat Two slots, stainless steel, polished up and sleek She popped up when I walked in, I said, "Don't do that." I got a good thing going, can't be moving like that! [Spoken] Respectfully. [Flow tightens] Back to the copy room, budget getting questionable Premium supplies, expenses aren't defensible Bouquet by the feeder, ribbon on the tray Sticky note that said, "You really brighten up my day." Steven from accounting wanna lecture me on conduct Talking 'bout inappropriate use of company products Said I oughta reconsider how I use the office budget [Sharp interruption] Steven, you got divorced through a TEXT! I don't wanna discuss it! [Beat cut] [Spoken] Thank you. [Fast escalating flow] HR got a folder and a formal invitation Said they wanna have a meeting 'bout my recent occupation Apparently the flowers and the poem and the chocolates Are an urgent interdepartmental topic Walked in with a presentation, eighteen slides Full-color charts, a timeline, professionally designed They said, "Sir, we're taking this extremely seriously." I said, "GOOD! I brought a ring! I need some witnesses!" [Silence] [Spoken, confused] Why is everybody leaving? [Bridge] [Drums strip to kick] [Spoken, smug] You want technical? I can do technical. [Beat cuts completely] [Acapella chopper, crisp and accelerating] Protocol, overload, status lights, paper load Latency, frequency, Ethernet, error code Authenticate, calibrate, reconfigure, clear the queue I can solve a hundred problems before you finish problem two! Recalculate, recalibrate, reroute the information Automatic, systematic document coordination Every warning, every failure, every network complication I can diagnose the problem with immaculate articulation! [Even faster] Got the scanner and the standard and the feeder and the fuser And the firmware and the framework and the settings on the user And the drivers and the wires and the paper and the toner I can fix your whole damn office! [Sudden silence] [Spoken, relaxed] But I still can't get her number. [Electronic error tone] "Device offline?" [Pause] I.T.?! [Full 808 reentry] [Final Chorus] [Hard percussive chant] HELLO, WORLD! GREEN LIGHT! SCAN THAT! TWO SIDES! RUN IT BACK! PRINT STACKS! I.T. AT THE DOOR? TELL 'EM RELAX! HELLO, WORLD! COPY THAT! HR ON THE PHONE? I'LL CALL 'EM BACK! NO SMALL TALK! NO SECOND GUESS! THIRTY PAGES A MINUTE! [Shouted] THAT'S MY GIRL! [Outro] [Half-time digital breakdown] [Spoken] I.T. says she's leased. Leased? So there's a contract. [Dry chuckle] I respect a woman with financial obligations. [Hard stop] [End]
