Lyrics

Verse 1
2

I sent the deck at nine

3

To everyone on the line

4

Just one tiny note

5

Now my stomach's gone cold

6

Marketing was first to scream

7

"Who hit that chain?" - that was me

8

I saw my own name glow

9

In the sender field

Pre-Chorus
12

And the manager wrote back fast

13

"Let's keep this one for the staff"

14

Then the whole floor lit up

15

Like I dropped a flare in the chat

Chorus
18

I did it again

21

Now the shame won't end

22

Reply all

23

On a company-wide chain

24

(reply all)

25

I made a joke and paid the tax in pain

Verse 2
28

The brand team tried to help

29

With a thumbs-up and a spell

30

But every "stop" I heard

31

Just turned into "send"

32

My VP typed "circling back"

33

Then HR came sliding in

34

And every marketer knows

35

This is how reputations bend

Pre-Chorus
38

We build the perfect pitch

39

Then one bad click goes through

40

I'm the cautionary tale

41

At the Monday meeting group

Chorus
44

I made a joke and paid the tax in pain

Bridge
54

Ah, watch the cursor shake

55

On a screen of doom

56

One little dropdown

57

And the whole room knew

Chorus

Behind the Lyrics

Marketers get CC'd on a lot of threads with external teams: agencies, vendors, the client's other agencies. And every so often, instead of replying only to your own side with a comment about the thread, you hit Reply All. I've done it. That's where this song lives: pure retrospective horror. You can't unsend. You can't un-discover. You can only watch someone materialise in the thread to point out the mistake, as if they'd been waiting in a lobby somewhere, suited up, ready. Is it embarrassing? Very. And the worst part is that ninety-nine times out of a hundred you didn't even say anything you shouldn't have. Nobody's angry. Everyone on the thread is simply... aware. Of. You. Not. Paying. Attention. UK drill with a husky female voice, because drill is the sound of consequences arriving calmly. Sliding bass, cold hi-hats, no drama in the delivery. Just the facts of what you did, repeated until you feel them. On the bright side, you now have an icebreaker for every company event for the next twelve months.
