Sleek White Baby Lyrics - The Wireless - Punch Brothers

Do you ever feel alone, old pal? 

Are you ragged, running low on morale 

Have I got something grand 

That I've planned for you! 

Baby, do you burn for glowing power after dark 

In the shadow of some hour you'll feel the spark 

Have I got something swell 

That I'll tell to you... 

You're not alone... 

For so many years, man has suffered the plague of isolation. Isolation from his fellow man, fellow woman, unable to connect, unable to reach out and touch someone, to be tethered, to be one with the world. 

But now, man and woman can be attuned to every arcane detail, every dog's bark, every boy's bat, every girl's tiara, with a new invention, a staggering development in technology. 

Sleek white baby 

Keep it by your bedside, maybe 

And then 

How all of your friends 

All of our friends 

Are here now 

Such cheer, now 

Nine out of ten businessmen agree, the sleek white baby should be your constant companion, whether you're dining, traveling, moping, convalescing, or eating a sandwich. Don't be the one left out. 

If you fail to buy our prized new machine (why would you do that?) 

You will find yourself stung by the sting (it's painful, really it is) 

Of gloom and misery, pal, you will die alone (that doesn't sound pleasant, does it?) 

Alone, alone, alone, alone - oooh...
