Lyrics

In strenuous objection to the emergent, lazy trend of reading text chains among the show crew - but happily an excuse to cover one of my fave Elvis Costello numbers...

Every Day I Write The Book

Don't tell me you’re going to read more text chains
We all know that this show can do much better
Hate to tell you, Tone, your friends are really not that clever
And then each note turns out not to be a bon mot
So with every edition there’s more audience attrition
And I'm getting really perplexed
Everyday
Everyday
Everyday
Everyday you read more texts

Lace sent one: but you’ve been asleep for so long
Sands sent two: He just dropped a big f bomb on you
You’re almost ready to wake up when he sends one at half past three
And why are all your pals still texting at four, five and six? Now...
