The two dudes who built the next hot tool are snoring.
Wrapped in a big VCs bed.
How is it you say it can do all this other great shit?
But you can’t lie the fuck down and sleep.

So you think we should do a podcast now?
And those who we converse with on YouTube we’ll reap?
No more suggestions. This engagement is over.
I’ve got two words for you kid: fucking sleep.

Zuckerberg reclines in the silicon jungle.
Biz Stone silences his cheep.
Fuck your follower list, I’m not buying your shit.
Close your eyes. Cut the crap. Sleep.

The next beta from Google dozes low in the meadows
And leaves you begging for invites from friends.
Your life is a failure. You’re a shitty ass “expert”.
Stop fucking with me, and sleep.

You claim to have killed the giants of old media.
As I lay here and openly weep.
Sure, fine, whatever. I’ll see about that panel.
Who the fuck cares? You’re not going to sleep.

Netscape is all I can remember.
Your app was crappy and not cheap.
You win. You escape. You chase down a trend.
As I nod the fuck off and sleep.

Bleary and dazed I awaken.
To find your eyes shut, is this a dream?
I tiptoe away by the light of my iPhone.
And pray that you’re fucking asleep.

I’m finally watching my Netflix streamed movie.
“Navy Seals” is snug in the queue. Winning!
Oh shit. Goddamn it. You’ve got to be kidding.
Come on, go the fuck back to sleep.
