Trust me on this one.

🎶 Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Met a boy by the bowling lanes
Nice blue hoodie and scuffed-up skates
We were talking, going alright
Then he grinned and he said that line
"Baby, make me a sandwich"

So I waved my hand with a little spark
Pink-blue shimmer
And the sky went dark
When the smoke finally vanished
He was ham on rye, neatly packaged

[Pre-Chorus]
It's a little unusual
But people like what they like

[Chorus]
Make me a sandwich
Sure I can
All it takes is a wave of my hand
Ham and cheese
Lightly garnished
Still don't know why
Boys request to be sandwiches

[Verse 2]
Met a guy at the arcade hall
Tall black jacket and basketball
Thought maybe he would ask me out
Then he smiled and he said it loud
"Hey, make me a sandwich"

Tiny sparkle and a swirl of steam
Now he's part of the lunch cuisine
All his friends just froze in panic
I wrapped him up in wax paper plastic

[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe it's a regional thing
Or a hobby group I haven't heard of

[Chorus]
Make me a sandwich
There you go
Magic words and a little glow
Whole grain bread
Good fibre content
Still don't know why
Boys request to be sandwiches

[Bridge]
Turkey
Swiss
Sourdough
Bliss
Maybe one day, someone will say
"Hey, wanna get coffee?" instead

[Chorus]
Make me a sandwich
Gladly done
Little bit strange
But it seems quite common
Pickles, lettuce, toasted cabbage
Honestly, boys seem very
Committed to sandwiches

Make me a sandwich
As requested
Freshly made and delicatessen-ed
At this point, I have to imagine
There's a very high demand
For becoming sandwiches

[Outro]
Honestly, panini would be more practical

Lewis Carrol's famous nonsense poem has always struck me as rather epic. This rock track gives it what it needs.

🎶 Lyrics

[Verse 1]
'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe
All mimsy were the borogoves
And the mome raths outgrabe

[Chorus]
Beware the Jabberwock, my son
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch

[Verse 2]
He took his vorpal sword in hand
Long time the manxome foe he sought
So rested he by the Tumtum tree
And stood awhile in thought

[Chorus]
Beware the Jabberwock, my son
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch

[Verse 3]
And, as in uffish thought he stood
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood
And burbled as it came

[Chorus]
Beware the Jabberwock, my son
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch

[Verse 4]
One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back

[Bridge]
And hast thou slain the Jabberwock
Come to my arms, my beamish boy
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay
He chortled in his joy

[Verse 5]
'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe
All mimsy were the borogoves
And the mome raths outgrabe

[Chorus]
Beware the Jabberwock, my son
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch

To the person who invented zero...

Yes, it's a break-up song math history mashup. Why ever not?

Lyrics:

[Intro]
Oh wow
You really left me with nothing

[Verse 1]
Packed your bags, cleared the room
Left me staring at the vacuum
No goodbye, no last kiss
Just a note that said it is what it is
Now my friends all say, girl, move on
Like empty space is something gone
But every time I count the cost
I realize what I actually lost
No calls
No sparks
No little light inside the dark
No you
No plans
Just a circle in my hands

[Chorus]
Thanks for nothing
No really thanks for nothing
Turns out nothing changed the world
Gave the stars a way to turn
From the void came everything
Science, rockets, engineering
So if you wanna leave me with zero
Maybe zero's where the heroes start
Thanks for nothing
Zero, zero
Round and round we go
Zero, zero
More than people know

[Verse 2]
Ancient traders counting dust
Needed something built on trust
Not a blank
Not a hole
But a place to
Let the numbers roll
Somewhere far from here they found
That nothing still could hold an amount
And suddenly the world could see
Infinity in simplicity

[Bridge]
No satellites
No code
No circuits on the overload
Without that little empty sign
No way to shift
The place value line
So baby, when you walked away
You accidentally made my day

[Chorus]
Thanks for nothing
Yeah, honestly, thanks for nothing
You erased yourself from me
Now I see what zero means
Not the end
Not defeat
Just space for
Something sweet
Funny how the world transformed because
Somebody invented nothing

[Outro]
ZERO, ZERO
ZERO, ZERO
Turns out, you can build a universe from that

Sometimes there's a line you keep coming back to.

🎶 Lyrics:

Drop in

Follow the line
Follow the line
Baseline
Baseline

Deep down where the rhythm starts
Where instinct meets electric sparks
Feel it rumble through the dark
Baseline, drawing out your heart
Every move in perfect time
We're calibrated, you and I
Push the pulse and cross the line
Baseline, body, soul aligned

Baseline, hit me one more time
Like thunder in the night
Let it take the lead
Let it be our guide
Baseline, it's the core design
We're written in the vibe
Every breath defined
By the baseline

Baseline
Baseline

Strip it back to truth and bone
No echo, just the signal tone
This frequency will make you known
Baseline claims you as its own
Turn it up, no counterfeit
We amplify, where futures split
Call it rhythm, call it grit
Baseline makes the world submit

Baseline, hit me one more time
Like thunder in the night
Let it take the lead
Let it be our guide
Baseline, it's the core design
We're written in the vibe
Every breath defined
By the baseline

Let
Me
Down
To
Dry
We
Want
We
Lift
Me
High
Let's
Defy
The
Sky
Baseline
Under
Skin
Deeper
In
Begin
Pulse on pulse
Line
On
Line
This
Is
The
Baseline
Do it again

Baseline, take control tonight
We surrender to the vibe
Every shattered line falls into your stride
Baseline, shake the air we breathe
You were always in the lead
You and me defined
By the baseline

Follow the line
Follow the line

A song about that tension between doing it well and getting it done.

🎶 Lyrics

[Verse 1]
"If you're going to do it, do it right"
That's what I was taught before I learned to ride
Measure twice. Take your time
Don't leave loose ends showing
The shortcut's always cheaper right up until you own it
A careless promise. A hurried hand
A corner cut you can't uncut
Some things deserve the best you've got

[Pre-Chorus]

So I checked. Then checked again
Sometimes... until the moment passed

[Chorus]
If it's worth doing
it's worth doing (doing) well
If it's worth doing
it's worth doing (doing) badly

[Verse 2]
There's a song that never left my notebook
A phone call that never left my head
A dream that stayed "almost ready" for years instead.
An unfinished masterpiece can't move a soul
A conversation you never have can't make you whole
Maybe the first step was always meant to look like the first step

[Pre-Chorus]
Funny how waiting can wear a mask
that looks just like wisdom

[Chorus]
If it's worth doing
it's worth doing (doing) well
If it's worth doing
it's worth doing (doing) badly

[Bridge]
I've seen rushed work leave cracks beneath the paint
I've seen careful plans grow old inside a drawer
One kind of failure makes headlines
The other... just quietly disappears

Do it right
Do it now
Slow it down
Figure out how
Measure twice
Miss your chance
Take your shot
Learn the dance
A rushed apology can break a heart
An unsent apology breaks one too

A careless weld can cost a life
A bridge never built leaves no way through
Check your parachute
Sketch the first draft
Don't cut corners
Cut a rough path

Read the manual
Trust your gut
Know the rules
Shake them up
Perfect timing
Time runs out
Keep your standards
Get it out
Half-learned medicine?
Stop right there
Half-learned guitar?
Nobody cares

Cross every "T"
Take the leap
Talk is cheap
Silence is steep
Every masterpiece started ugly
Every disaster started somewhere
Every expert was once guessing
Every beginner looked ridiculous
Do it properly
Do it anyway
Do it carefully
Do it today

[Final Chorus]
If it's worth doing
it's worth doing (doing) well
If it's worth doing
it's worth doing (doing) badly

If it's worth doing
If it's worth doing
If it's worth doing, it's worth doing badly

An ode to 3D printing, this is a song is for everyone who loves 3D printing. 😀

🎶 Lyrics

[Intro]
Let it down
Let it down

[Verse 1]
Started with a sketch on the back of my mind
Couple of lines, now it's taking its time
Spin it in CAD till it finally fits
One more tweak, now we're ready to commit
Slice it up, load the spool, hit go
Tiny little nozzle putting on a show
First layer lands and I'm holding my breath
Nothing beats that perfect stick
Yes

[Pre-Chorus]
Every little layer, every little line
Slowly turning "maybe" into
"Look what I designed"

[Chorus]
Lay it down
Watch it run round and round
Round and round
Turning dreams into something I can hold
Line by line
Building one layer at a time
Round and round
Making something out of nothing
Never gets old
Never gets old

[Verse 2]
Need a bracket? Nah, I'll make my own
Don't need the shops when the workshop's home
Orange pet G, maybe Galaxy Blue
Better buy another spool or two
Print a humming like it's got a heartbeat
Little stepper motors keeping perfect beat
Family says "Are you watching again?"
"Just the first layer"
They all grin

[Verse 3]
Failures happen, that's the game
Birds nest, spaghetti, who's to blame
Maybe the filament, maybe the heat
Maybe I forgot to clean the sheet
Measure twice, redesign
Every setback's part of the climb
Every version teaches more
Prototype 4 becomes version four-score
Ideas don't belong inside your head
Bring them out into the world instead
Layer by layer, day by day
That's how impossible finds a way

[Bridge]
It's more than plastic, more than parts
It's taking little sparks and
Giving them a start
The things we dream
The things we make
Begin as tiny circles that never stop their dance

[Chorus]
Lay it down
Watch it run round and round
Round and round
Turning dreams into something I can hold
Line by line
Building one layer at a time
Round and round
Every little layer tells a bigger story

[Final Chorus]
Lay it down
Watch it run round and round
Who would've guessed an idea could sound
Like tiny little motors singing through the night
Making tomorrow
One layer at a time

[Outro]
Round and round
Round and round
One more print
Before I sleep

Probably

Probably
