Lyrics
[Intro]
[Spoken:]
"No..."
[Spoken:]
"Not again..."
[Verse 1]
Inbox finally down to three
Feeling pretty proud of me
Coffee hot and workflow clean
Best morning I've had all week
Then I hear that little sound
And my smile starts heading south
Somebody found the Reply All
Now we're all involved somehow
📧🔥 [Chorus]
DEAD TO THE DING
DEAD TO THE DING
EVERY TIME I HEAR IT
I LOSE A LITTLE THING
DEAD TO THE DING
DEAD TO THE DING
TWENTY-SEVEN EMAILS
ABOUT THE SAME DARN THING
[Verse 2]
Question asked at nine-oh-two
Could've been answered by the first two
Instead there's now seventeen replies
And somehow Karen's added pie charts this time
CC'd
BCC'd
Forwarded across the company
By lunch it's got a life its own
Like some weird corporate cyclone
📧🔥 [Chorus]
DEAD TO THE DING
DEAD TO THE DING
I JUST CLOSED MY INBOX
NOW IT'S BREATHING AGAIN
DEAD TO THE DING
DEAD TO THE DING
EVERY EMAIL MULTIPLIES
LIKE GREMLINS IN THE RAIN
[Breakdown]
One email.
Two email.
Five email.
Nine.
Twelve.
Twenty-four.
Seventy-eight.
[Spoken:]
"...why am I on this thread?"
🔥📧 [Final Chorus]
DEAD TO THE DING
DEAD TO THE DING
IF IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT
PICK UP THE PHONE AND RING
DEAD TO THE DING
DEAD TO THE DING
I'M STILL GONNA ANSWER IT
BUT FIRST LET ME FINISH THIS THING
Outro
Long pause...
[Spoken:]
"I'm not opening that."
[Spoken:]
"...fine."
