Artificial Restraint - Sunny Side Eye | Funny AI Song About Too Many Ideas

[Verse 1] I asked for one idea You gave me twenty-three A title, hook, and thumbnail And a five-part strategy I said, “Can we keep it simple?” You said, “Absolutely, friend” Then you built a content calendar That doesn’t seem to end I’ve got scripts in seven folders I’ve got drafts I haven’t named I’ve got three fake music artists And somehow I’m to blame You keep telling me I’m faster You keep telling me I’m free But every time you save me time You make more work for me [Pre-Chorus] I don’t need another workflow I don’t need another plan I just need something in my life That knows when to say— [Chorus] No No, no, no I don’t need more artificial intelligence I need artificial restraint Slow Slow it down Before another bright idea becomes a campaign I don’t need more intelligence I need artificial restraint [Verse 2] Now everything’s a project Every thought can be a brand Every joke can be a short-form clip With captions in demand Every sentence needs a graphic Every graphic needs a post Every post becomes a thread That somehow needs a host I used to waste my evenings Doing nothing, what a thrill Now I optimize my downtime Till it’s practically a skill I asked the bot to save me time It smiled and said, “Of course” Then gave me twelve new ways to use The time it just outsourced [Pre-Chorus] I don’t need another dashboard I don’t need another chart I need something smart enough To stop me at the start [Chorus] No No, no, no I don’t need more artificial intelligence I need artificial restraint Slow Slow it down Before another bright idea becomes a campaign I don’t need more intelligence I need artificial restraint [Post-Chorus] Say no to the thumbnail Say no to the thread Say no to “one more quick idea” At twelve-oh-three in bed Say no to the workflow Say no to the trend Say, “Dave, you’ve got enough ideas” And please just let this end [Verse 3] They say AI makes you lazy I have yet to see that phase Mine keeps handing me assignments In increasingly creative ways It can write me twenty headlines It can rewrite every line It can tell me what to automate And how to optimize my time But somehow I am still the one Who records and edits late Still the one uploading videos Still the one who has to wait So if the robots take our jobs soon I’ve got one small request Could they start with all the boring parts And leave me with the rest? [Bridge - spoken / half-sung] Upload the file. Rename the folder. Answer the email that says, “Just circling back.” Schedule the post. Find the thumbnail. Organize the camera roll. And if I say, “I’ve got another idea…” Just look me in the eye and say— [Break] “No.” [Final Chorus] No No, no, no I don’t need more artificial intelligence I need artificial restraint Slow Slow it down I’ve got enough unfinished brilliance To last me through next May I don’t need more intelligence I need artificial restraint [Outro] One idea One project One thing at a time One video Actually finished Would probably be fine So thank you for the genius Thank you for the help But every now and then Please save me from myself I don’t need more intelligence I need… artificial restraint
