lyrics

Never have opened the books
Never have opened the box
Now we’re boxed in by boxes
That we house in the house

All that we forage, de facto garbage
What is this exercise in storage?
What is this private museum?
Artifacts stashed where nobody sees them

Digitize and discard
Document and destroy
Digitize and discard
I find it sparks joy

Spend all the time on the phone
Spend all the space on the stuff
Spend all the money on the space
Spend none of the time on the stuff

Where are the things I actually use?
All on my phone, recalled at a word
Where is the stuff that’s not on a screen?
Buried in some closet, festooned with mouse turd

May we all be disabused 
Of our sentimental material tangible
May we confess what’s increasingly true
May we streamline since we’re digital animals

Digitize and discard
Document and destroy
Digitize and discard
I find it sparks joy
