He Only Delivers The Box (ft. Natalie Luxton) by burn-it-smith published on 2020-06-26T10:28:55Z He Only Delivers the Box is about the invisible people who do things for us and our ability to de-humanise them which has a depressingly long history and it is not o.k !!!! Dedicated to Taki, a food delivery driver who is sadly no longer with us. Big thank you to Natalie Luxton for her fabulous vocals & Yaron Engler whose drum programming is legendary. Hope ya like it. https://youtu.be/KkMYZyo3KNw (featuring Peacehaven at an ungodly hour) He sits on his scooter Connects to the router Stares at the android and waits A radial line throbber Gives a job to another Stealing the food from his plate He’s tired, deflated Under-rated Feeling a bit of a bot Who gives a fig About his next gig He only delivers the box Box on the back Tied to the rack Wait for that thing to go ping Eat a banana Sing ta na na na na Ignore that nagging chest pain Engage the clutch To deliver that lunch Repeat and do it again Dweet dat doot… Box on the back Tied to the rack Wait for that thing to go ping Eat a banana Sing ta na na na na Ignore that nagging chest pain Engage that clutch To deliver that lunch Watch out for the driver’s blind spot! The guy will go nuts if it isn’t hot Why tie people up in such knots! Genre Jazz & Blues Comment by Lefty Mike How did I miss this little gem from last year?
