snorlaxjen This album is the reason I am a fan of the great Jazz Emu : my music randomly shuffled onto Generic Response No. 327 and the rest is history
Digital Spool is one of those albums that you can listen to over and over again…

Monster Incorporated, One of The Good Ones and of course Still Waiting are pure genius, but please do not skip a single track or you’ll miss the fantastic Hummingbird & Shneeky Phase.

This album is twice as precious as anything you’ll find out there. And it tastes delicious. Favorite track: Generic Response No. 327.

wumft Fantastic record. Henderson's psychedelic R&B and funk works really well when it's going for a joke, and when it's merely being playful, and when it's taking a more emotionally affecting route. A lot of songs are silly on the surface but have a lot of pathos and resonance once you dig in a bit (and so many little production touches and odd, rewarding vocal flourishes I'm still processing them after listening to this for days). Favorite track: You Would Never.

I’m a patient man But there’s one thing I’ve been waiting for My whole goddam life My eyes are aching, man But I can’t blink just case it falls When I close my eyes I know I should let go But there’s a part of me that still hopes It can do it But every time it gets close It double bounces off of both walls Ugh! Ugh! I’m still waiting for the DVD logo To hit the corner of my TV This little baby’s driving me loco Who knew a graphic could be cheeky? It’s just teasing me My eyeballs are now crispy to the touch (I can touch my own eyeball, is that normal?) I want that DVD logo To hit the corner of my TV I’m not a mad man I do not spend my time exclusively Watching my TV I’ve got a webcam So I can stare at it remotely And discreetly This has ruined my life My wife divorced me, and she took all eight Of our kids I missed the birth of my child But I just know it’ll be worth it Not to miss When that cheeky little DVD logo Hits the corner of my TV Did you see that one? Oh heck it, that was so close. I trained one eyeball to be lazy, so I can multi-see My eyeballs are so crispy to the touch (No amount of liquid can rehydrate them) I need that DVD logo Hit the corner of my TV Sometimes I wonder What will happen when it hits? Will the world stand still or fold into a dream? Will the DVD logo come to life And hold me like I held my wife? I need the DVD logo To hit the corner of the TV I’m tired of this permanent prologue Let me handle what i can see, i can nearly reach Oh baby I can feel it Something’s reeling in to me So baby just keep dreaming Don’t police your energy

I’m in my Shneeky Phase Gonna do something bad without you noticing Woah I’m in my Shneeky Phase Finna break all the rules so surreptitiously Mmmm No smoking sign out on the street I’m hiding next to it with a haddock and aromatic charcoal I’ll smoke where I want to You gifted me some NFTs But I took those tokens and I funged up every single one that you gave I made them fungible Got a hands-free phone but i’m holding it (shhh) Here’s a no-show policy, yes i’m showing you it No you ain’t never seen a shneek like me At a bottomless brunch but I’ve got an ass (shh) With a cup of sloe gin which I’m drinking fast From a multipack I purchased separately You can’t do that I’m in my Shneeky Phase Gonna do something bad without you noticing Woah I’m in my Shneeky Phase I’m not going stand on the right hand side when I escalate I will lie fully prone on the handrail Knock knock, Who’s there? It’s the FBI, we’ve come to find you We’ve been training all our eyes upon your shneekiness, shneekiness We want to use you If you’re wondering why, we’ve got some spies Who need to learn from your advice in being Shneeky yes. Step one, take out your credit card (okay) Step two, read me out the long number (here you go) Step three, read me all the other details too Here you go, I - Wait a second You just. Got. Shnkeed. My god he's good. I’m in my Shneeky Phase I’m in my Shneeky Phase

Oh no, this always happens I get myself in trouble Look where I'm standing Nipple-deep in quicksand I've been confusing lust for love and You've been abusing all my trust I'm Running out of time but there's just enough to Get myself out You've been feeding lies to me baby, uh oh I've been open wide like a baby, ooh ooh ooh Say that you would die for me baby, eeh eeh eeh But you would never You've been feeding lies to me baby, uh oh I've been open wide like a baby, ooh ooh ooh Say that you would die for me baby, eeh eeh eeh But you would never But you would never Oh, it's fishing season And you've hooked me on your pole And now I'm grieving For the roof of my mouth I've been confusing lust for love and You've been abusing all my trust I'm Running out of time but there's just enough to Get myself out You've been feeding lies to me baby, uh oh I've been open wide like a baby, ooh ooh ooh Say that you would die for me baby, eeh eeh eeh But you would never You've been feeding lies to me baby, uh oh I've been open wide like a baby, ooh ooh ooh Say that you would die for me baby, eeh eeh eeh But you would never But you would never

You’re coming home with me And we can both feel there’s an alchemy But when we get down to it, oh oh I sense a softness in my anatomy down below Oh no oh You should come and look at my garage tonight We could maybe save rumpy pumpy for another night, Cause the mood feels right to keep our trousers on fully I could really use a massage tonight You know I’m really love some coitus, my joints are just feeling tight From the last ten nights, when I made love successfully Whacha doing bro? Lying to avoid having to let them Inside your frightened head, oh no Let your ego go You don’t need to hold it all together When you know it would feel better to cry To cry No eye left dry Won’t you cry? Goodbye Don’t say goodbye yet You don’t have to go Don’t say goodbye yet I want you to know This feeling I’m keeping inside for my own So don’t say goodbye yet Don’t say goodbye I could really do with a hug tonight I could really do with someone to hold me through the night Say it's alright, say it's alright I could really do with some love tongiht I could really do with a tunnel to another life, to another life

I could never fall asleep with you beside me There was something in the way you breathed That made me frightened You had no respect for me For my artistry For my music I don’t get what you mean you find it tonally inconsistent Everything I make is totally tonally coherent It’s generically uniform And uses the traditional instruments If love is the question, then what is the answer? If love is the question, then what is the answer? If love is the question, then what is the answer? Can you pat my bum So you’ve been accusing me (it’s what i feared, oh) Of writing music inconsistently When you can clearly see (with both your earholes) I pick one mood and then I stick to it Chapter 4, the cursed bed knob Okay I admit that that was Possibly one slip From being tonally consistent But I’m fixing it, fixing it Must i now embrace That this is a problem i’ve been facing Since the moment i started making Music Is that it, is that it? Can my life having meaning If my art is always cleaved Between two matrices of being Am I wasting it, wasting it Must I now accept That this artistic dialect Is my fragmented ego manifesting Time to quit, is it time to quit? But the Bums! Don’t forget about the bums, Jazz You know they’re funny to think about You know they’re funny to sing about We are your bums. We’re your bums. How could i leave behind my bums, You’re so funny to think about And so witty to sing about

English Language We’ve all had enough of you making it Tough for us all to pronounce you You need to pick a frickin’ lane With the sounds you’re making Like ‘ough’ It’s said how it’s spelt - psych It’s oh, ow, oo, or, off, uff, uck or up What the fough is ough with that? English language We’ve all had enoo of you making it too for us to pro-no-un-kay It feels like you’re just taking the P Out of pterodactyl to fough with us Let’s talk about queue That sounds already the first letter so what’s with the extra ‘UEUE’? Are we just adding any old shit to the endings of words now? In that case I’ll have the fish and chips. And a packet of prawn cocktail crispstsch$- Yes the dollar sign is silent. Oh the hyphen? No that’s pronounced ough. English Lanjuaje We’ve all had enow of you making it tow for us to proshinulase Why is the plural of mouse mice, But we can’t live in semi-detached nice? If you keep on laughing at me You’re gonna drive me to commit manslaughter And don’t even get me started on the place names Chumlee? Woolsery? Screw this I’m moving to France. Oh sweet Jesus.

Hell to the no No fucking way I don’t fucking think so You can get yourself to fuck Would you like that gift wrapped? Would you like me to repeat that? Would you like to check the state off the FTSE? Would you like to accept all cookies? Would you like to speak to a human? Would you like to save these children? Would you like to be a teenager again? Hell to the no No fucking way I don’t fucking think so You can get yourself to fuck You lost, would you like to play again? You won, would you like to lose again? Would you like an airdrop of my dick? Would you like to meet hot mums in your area? Would you like fries with that? Would you like a moist towelette? Would you like a brand new start? Would you like to sample this organic egg? Get your egg away from me I don’t want to sample it Refer it back to corporate Their marketing has no effect Hell to the no No fucking way I don’t fucking think so You can get yourself to fuck Hell to the no No fucking way I don’t fucking think so You can get yourself to fuck

Fabergé Egg 02:27
You’re precious to me Like a faberge egg A delicacy Like a faberge egg But there’s a catch Like a faberge egg You’re hollow inside Like a faberge egg If I might say You are like egg To be specific A Faberge, Faberge, Just like that egg You have round head Can I please lick it Apology, apology You shine so bright Like a faberge egg Such curvy sides Like a faberge egg But you hold a lie Like a faberge egg You are not real egg Like a faberge egg Oh my my love I am falling at your feet Oh so elegant and beauty I cannot quite computing Oh my love How much I long to eat All your tasty-looking chocolate With plastic toy on inside All for me You’re a kinder egg Not a faberge egg But a similar egg To a faberge egg You are twice as precious As a faberge egg Cause you taste delicious

Chilling in a bar with your mates You crack a little joke It don’t go down great But then your friend replies with a line That gets the gang cracking up And you’re left bereft Well, here’s a way to ride out the vibe And still look super-chill and stuff Whisper under your breath “I set you up for that one No i’m not claiming your laugh I just want writer’s credit for my half I set you up for that one Geoff That hearty chuckle you got Was only possible because of what i said before in many ways i should get full credit I guess in many ways technically i said it Let’s all sign this contracted which i’ve printed Which states this bit of fun we just experienced Should be exclusively and legally attributed to me I want it publicly on record that i am the fun one here” Post a funny viddy online About stealing people’s jokes, you know that the song’s a vibe But then you see that someone’s reply has blown off the proverbial roof Over 300 likes But you know that they’re living a lie It’s time that you expose the truth So you @ them like “I set you up for that one You think that said that yourself? I mean yes technically you did but if really think you’ll see it was made possible By someone else (Me!) I set you up for that one SexyGoblin69 Okay your username is funny But I draw the line At riffing on a joke without invitation You’re edging pretty close to plagiarism Did you know they beat up criminals in prison Who claim a joke is theirs when it isn’t? I didn’t want to have to do this but you’re leaving me no choice I’ll delete my whole channel before of it becomes yours

The modern masculine Repressed, aggressive, desensitized Me, I’m not like him Respectful, gentle, check my Styles Granny necklace upon my neck? Check One dangly earring from Tibet? Yes Fingernail paint, I guess there’s no question I must be one of the good ones (come and fix me girl, I’m so broken) I must be one of the good ones (stay away from me girl, I’m unfixable) Allyship is all About listening to women’s thoughts And I can tell you all About that over a drink at yours How could I be The Bad Guy? My trousers are tight Yes I’m a walking red flag, but I’m wearing a Pride one, But if someone implies that I'm gay I will fight them, right now I must be one of the good ones (Yes I’m sensitive, but in a way that makes me extremely physically strong) I must be one of the good ones (My t-shirt? Oh it says “This is what a feminist looks like”. Yes it’s pointing at me) Putting on a dress that’s so freaking brave of ya OMG obsessed with that cute behaviour, Never had to stress it might lead to danger yeah, You are the saviour, you are the saviour (He must be one of good ones) Do the right thing, admit that you’re faking it Fucking little shit go fix your behaviour Yes we know best so fit to the labelling Fit to the labelling Fit to the labelling (We must be some of the good ones) Putting on a dress that’s so freaking brave of ya OMG obsessed with that cute behaviour, Never had to stress it might lead to danger yeah, You are the saviour, you are the saviour (He must be one of good ones) Do the right thing, admit that you’re faking it Fucking little shit go fix your behaviour Yes we know best so fit to the labelling Fit to the labelling Fit to the labelling (We must be some of the good ones)

Hummingbird 04:12
It’s a story old as time Write a line that doesn’t rhyme And resign to being nothing more than adequate Snap your feelings to the grid Man they’ll never know you did You were flying now you’re Vying for a fix for it Giving life to a seed of doubt That the fire in your hearth is out Hey little Hummingbird Won’t you give me a sign That there’s still life, there’s still life in you? Hey little Hummingbird won’t you hum me a line? Sing that ancient tune. Throw that feeling to the wind Push your head under the sand Did you really think You’re any more than adequate? Drink the pickle that you’re in Bend your frown into a grin Turn your inside out Was that the plan for getting it? Diving headfirst into clout But the ends are both shallow now Hey little Hummingbird Won’t you give me a sign That there’s still life, there’s still life in you? Hey little Hummingbird won’t you hum me a line? Sing that ancient tune. Hummingbird, say the word, And I can pull the plug on you Hummingbird, say the word, I could pull the rug from under you If i wasn’t so dug far into you Hey little Hummingbird Won’t you give me a sign That there’s still life, there’s still life in you? Hey little Hummingbird won’t you hum me a line? Sing that ancient tune.

Hahaha You know that feeling when A goblin has been stalking you? We’ve all been there! Hahaha And you know that feeling when You choose to write a song about it Am I right? Am I wrong To do this just for me? And act like I’m not Permanently wondering Do you feel me? Is this relatable? Do the things I say to you make you agree? Cause I need it. To find a way to you; Make you find my point of view Sympathetic. Do you feel me Is it relatable All the things I make for you Here in my room? Is there meaning In what say for you? Or is it a waste of good Digital Spool? Digital Spool Everything you make Is your inner passions seeking an expression So was it a mistake To make a goblin my primary mental obsession Do you feel me Is that relatable? Are these concepts scalable for the market Should I heed it And make me salable Make my work sustainable Or just fuck it Cause I feel it It feels relatable All this shit I make for you Here in my room Cause there’s meaning In finding ways to you Do you like the taste of good Digital Spool? Digital Spool
