Everything Beeps
Verse 1
Everything beeps to tell me it’s done,
But it’s not done pestering — oh no, it’s just begun.
From morning’s first blink to night’s deep sleep,
My hours are counted in beep… beep… beep.
Verse 2
The microwave yells, “Come get your food!”
The coffee pot sings, “Get your caffeine, dude!”
The oven declares, “I’m hot and I’m ready!”
The toaster cries out, “Grab me quick, already!”
Verse 3
The dishwasher hums, “Your plates are dry!”
The fridge starts scolding, “Hey, my chill will fly!”
The washer sings sweet, “Your laundry’s through!”
The dryer chimes in, “I’ve been waiting for you!”
Chorus
Beep, beep, beep — it’s all in my brain,
It’s chime after chime and a clanging refrain.
Beep, beep, beep — from wake to sleep,
I just wish they’d never make a single peep.
Verse 4
The kettle shouts, “Your water’s done!”
The smoke alarm wails, “That was overcooked fun!”
The timer beeps, “Your cookies are through!”
The printer sings, “Paper is ready — been waiting for you!”
Verse 5
The seatbelt nags, “Buckle up right away!”
The car behind says, “Hurry — don’t delay!”
The crosswalk shouts, “It’s safe, let’s go!”
The garbage truck beeps, “I’m in reverse, you know!”
Chorus
Beep, beep, beep — it’s all in my brain,
It’s chime after chime and a clanging refrain.
Beep, beep, beep — from wake to sleep,
I just wish they’d never make a single peep.
Bridge
One day I’ll find a quiet street,
Where nothing talks and nothing beeps.
A world so calm and sound so clean,
I just hope there’s never a beep for the latrine.
Final Chorus
Beep, beep, beep — it’s all in my brain,
It’s chime after chime and a clanging refrain.
Beep, beep, beep — from wake to sleep,
I just wish they’d never make a single peep.
