I haven’t gone anywhere yet
I haven’t gone anywhere yet
I haven’t gone anywhere yet
I’m still here
Fighting on the internet
This is a Processing Frustration Song. So, yeah. I mean, who hasn’t fought on the internet in the past 12 months? 😉 This is a Processing Frustration Song. It’s shared fruit from a garden of Opinions over the past few weeks and more.
I dedicate it to my (frustrating) desire to really understand what the hell people are thinking, ADHD, and last but not least, my Scottish heritage. 😉
Also, it includes a scene from Romeo and Juliet, Act 1, Scene 1, between Abraham, Sampson, and Gregory. For Reasons.
It also is the most theatrical piece I’ve created or engineered.

Lyrics
I haven’t gone anywhere yet
I haven’t gone anywhere yet
I haven’t gone anywhere yet
I’m still here
Fighting on the internet
Is it so hard to see
Through the repartee
That we basically both agree
It’s not a decree
That’s an inquiry
Why are you typing like a banshee?
You’ve raised the degree
quite staggeringly
Can you write without hyperbole?
I haven’t gone anywhere yet
I haven’t gone anywhere yet
I haven’t gone anywhere yet
I’m still here
Fighting on the internet
The thoughts overflow
This could be a show
Is that a comment or a domino?
The night is so slow
Wind it up and go
Digging holes like a backhoe
I can’t let it go
I’m a Scorpio
Maybe someday I’ll outgrow….NAH
I haven’t gone anywhere yet
I haven’t gone anywhere yet
I haven’t gone anywhere yet
I’m still here
Fighting on the internet
Tempted to succumb
Give into the scrum
Tied my hands, bit my tongue.
Try to overcome
But feeling so numb…
Where did you say you’re from?
Don’t think that I’m dumb
Those points aren’t a sum
I think I just bit my thumb.

<Romeo and Juliet, Act 1, Scene 1>
Abraham. Do you bite your thumb at us, sir?
Sampson. I do bite my thumb, sir.
Abraham. Do you bite your thumb at us, sir?
Sampson. No, sir, I do not bite my thumb at you, sir, but I bite my thumb, sir.
Gregory. Do you quarrel, sir?
_ _ _
I haven’t gone anywhere yet
I haven’t gone anywhere yet
I haven’t gone anywhere yet
I’m still here
Fighting on the internet
We may never meet
You could be so sweet
But you seem compelled to compete
There’s no one to beat
And no tally sheet
There’s no victory or defeat
Think that you’re elite?
Your thoughts are complete?
By now the thread’s obsolete
I haven’t gone anywhere yet
I haven’t gone anywhere yet
I haven’t gone anywhere yet
I’m still here
Fighting on the internet
