 Audio: Welcome to the Microwave
project: Brainpipe
mp3: brainpipe/brainpipe-welcome_to.mp3

Brainpipe did a song for the Welcome To ____ songfight that ended yesterday. The optional challenge was to fill in that blank, so ours was “Welcome to the Microwave”.

I’m proud of this song.

the carousel provides a way
to rotate while I melt away

electric hum, i hear a fan
a beep resounds. grabbed by the man

i’m prodded, poked, my rights denied
to feel the temperature inside

but oh-oh
i’m not ready yet to eat
woah-oh-oh
a few more seconds in the heat

welcome to the microwave
welcome to the microwave
welcome to the microwave
it’s too late now to be saved

i thought my ride would never end
but, oh no, here we go again

the door is closed, the lights turn on
my tortured spin resumes anon

the heat emerges from within
my inner moisture cooks the skin

endless meals have met their fate
while endless fools increase their weight.

oh-oh
look at all my saturated fats
woah-oh-oh
you will have a heart attack

welcome to the microwave
welcome to the microwave
welcome to the microwave
it’s too late now to be saved

The song is cool. The lyrics are especially well done.

Your rhymes just flow. And, they are almost always on time.

Man, I am oh-so white!

By the way, your “toggleLayer” Javascript function does not work in Firefox.

At least, it didn’t work for me.

Cool! This song is the fi-shizzle … which is hopefully a good thing.
