A song about the pains of administrative tasks.

LYRICS for "Don't"

© Lyrics & Music by Camilla Mathias

A virus has been detected
My computer might be infected
Don’t shut down
Don’t turn off

Why do they need my date of birth?
What’s e-billing really worth?
Don’t transfer me
Don’t put me on hold

Why’s my card been blocked – again?
I can’t stand your automated voice system
Don’t over-charge me
Don’t disregard me

My network connection has been denied
And my postcode’s not recognised
Don’t credit check me
Don’t subscribe me

Don’t give me Reward Points
Don’t want to update Java
Don’t ask me register
Don’t have an authorisation code
Don’t need data whilst roaming
Don’t want to set a password
Don’t give me your premium number
Don’t have another login name
Don’t want to see my balance
Don’t need your Newsfeed or Timeline
Don’t want a Crime Reference number
Don’t have an expiry date…

It’s giving me an error message
Can I un-tick the insurance package?
Don’t beep at me
Don’t crash on me

Don’t want to have a two year contract
Don’t know my last ten transactions
Don’t want to connect with a mutual friend
Don’t search me for explosives
Don’t default format my document
Don’t say I need to come back next week
Don’t tell me that the memory’s full
Don’t ask me security questions
Don’t say my ticket’s no longer valid
Don’t tell me to just calm down
Don’t want to take a rail replacement bus
Don’t say.. it’s been deleted.. Don’t
