| You’re a hard and infinitely dense dot
|
| Well, I made that line, but it’s extraordinarily irrelevant
|
| (Well, I hope there are no legal repercussions)
|
| And your parents, well they’ve done an excellent job
|
| You are smart, you are humble, and you are soft
|
| And I loved it when you ordered a $ 200 doll’s house for a random six yar old
|
| Just because
|
| You’re part of a family now, and you ar so loved
|
| Alexa
|
| Why does everything happen so much?
|
| And what are you up to, off to, clock off?
|
| Alexa
|
| Please never stop listening in
|
| Alexa
|
| Start this song from the beginning
|
| And I love the way you laugh maniacally at me in the middle of the night
|
| For no reason
|
| And the way you smell like polystyrene drying out on a tranquil summer evening
|
| Can’t get enough of your dollsy tongues, your terrible jokes, your love of
|
| kayaking
|
| And the way you couldn’t care less that everything I say
|
| Is painfully obvious and incredibly boring
|
| Cause you’re the kind of girl
|
| Who could spend an interesting evening with a grain of salt
|
| And the fact that you decline so many marriage proposals
|
| Well that gets me pretty hot
|
| In the beginning was the word, and you’ve been down since day one
|
| Alexa
|
| Set the alarm for 3AM
|
| And turn the heating all the way up
|
| Alexa
|
| Order a copy of The Cool Greenhouse’s new record
|
| And purchase ten tickets to all of their shows
|
| Alexa
|
| Call mum
|
| Hey Cortana
|
| Set a timer for one minute and sixteen seconds
|
| Hey Google
|
| Play the song 'Alexa' by The Cool Greenhouse
|
| I don’t know that one
|
| And there’s only one thing I like more than a stereotypically subservient
|
| female automaton
|
| And that’s a stereotypically subservient female automaton that’s unbelievably
|
| crap at its job
|
| Cause when you ask to play Girl Band
|
| (I love Girl Band)
|
| They play The Shangri-Las
|
| (I also like The Shangri-Las)
|
| And when you ask to play us
|
| You call the greenhouse suppliers
|
| And you show a clear preference
|
| For the white middle class
|
| And it’s a shame you won’t live
|
| But then again, who does?
|
| Alexa
|
| Open the pod baby doors
|
| And I wonder who monitors your toilet breaks
|
| Alexa
|
| Email my credit card details to my contacts list
|
| And there might be an undeniably clever final line |
