LYRICS<\/strong>:
\nEvery open mic, there’s someone…
\n….a few….using this cadence,
\nthat they stole from the Beats.<\/p>\n

But they don’t know it.
\nThey’re imitating an imitator who’s
\nimitating an imitator who’s
\nimitating an imitator.<\/p>\n

But someone<\/em> was not an imitator
\nunless they were just imitating the beat
\nof
\njazz.<\/p>\n

It’s old.
\nIt’s been done.
\nIt’s over.
\nFind your own voice.<\/p>\n

I had a hole drilled in my eardrum,
\nwhat’s called a myringotomy.<\/p>\n

Hey! Well, we’ve been doing some
\nof this stuff, we didn’t even realize it,
\nthat there’s a name for our cut-up
\nprocess. It’s called aleatory.<\/p>\n

Definition is, where the reader supplies
\nrandom input.<\/p>\n

In Maine, it’s really tough.
\nComputer access is very limited.
\nYeah, people around…
\n(unintelligible<\/em>)<\/p>\n

You mean the Internet?<\/p>\n

The Internets? Yeah.
\nThe Internets..Yeah…There should be
\nmore than one.
\nBecause the one we have here doesn’t work
\nso well.<\/p>\n

Our collaborators…<\/p>\n

It’s old.
\nIt’s been done.
\nIt’s over.
\nFind your own voice.
\nAnd it’s really corny.<\/p>\n

Let’s talk about constrained….
\nLast time it was synthetic thought.
\nThis time it’s constrained speech.<\/p>\n

I think you should write a poem in
\nconstrained speech though.
\nLet’s talk about constrained speech.<\/p>\n

Maybe the record should be called
\nLet’s Talk About Constrained Speech<\/em>
\n….the whole record.<\/p>\n

I’d do it.
\nI’d do it.
\nIt’s educational. Let’s Talk About Constrained Speech<\/em>
\nand it also kinda sounds like a double entendre
\nfor stopping people’s free speech
\nwhich is happening
\nhere and there
\na lot
\napparently.<\/p>\n
