Zoom

I'm not the type to fetishize technology
But look at me
Obsessing over settings
So I'm getting better
audio quality
Cross my fingers and
Hope the internet
Doesn't fail me I
Hope I don't forget
To record this and
Hope the order of
Songs is decent and
Doesn't bore you
The platform as a conduit makes things intimate
And I'm into it
You see the deal
is it makes you feel
Like it's almost real
And that's how they want it
It's a proven fact
All this eye contact
Isn't natural
But it's what lack
Though it represents
All that I resent
I concede this one
To The One Percent
Zoom
Zoom
Now is fooling whom
We make the best of what we've got
We make a friend
I'll Zoom
Zoom
Into your living room
And try not to focus on when this all ends
I've seen the seder and the Shiva house
I've seen your kids and I've seen your spouse
The high school graduations
Cancellations
of everything meaningful
But despite it all
We decided all
Up against a wall
No immunity
Just community
Everyone's here for their
Saturday afternoon
Zoom
Zoom
Now who is fooling whom
We make the best of what we've got
We make a friend
I'll Zoom
Zoom
Into your living room
And try not to focus on when this all ends
And when it lets me down it's in such mammoth
ways
I won't miss the racist chat spam from those early
days
Zoom
Zoom
Now who is fooling whom
We make the best of what we've got
We make a friend
I'll Zoom
Zoom
Into your living room
And try not to focus on when this all ends
