Barbara 2.0 - 2019 Original Demo by Eddie Perfect Lyrics
[BARBARA]
Look at this stuff
God, it's depressing
[ADAM, spoken]
If this is about tidying, we can always tidy up
[BARBARA]
A shrine to the feelings
That I've been repressing
[ADAM]
Well, there's some kinda valuable stuff in here...
[BARBARA, sung]
Half-finished projects
Meaningless objects
Plans I abandoned or quit
It's the stuff of our lives
And all of its shit
[ADAM]
Barbara?!
[BARBARA, spoken]
What? Look!
[sung]
Books on computers
A "spin-your-own-yarn" kit?
[ADAM]
Hey, there's nothing wrong with yarn
[BARBARA]
Home-brewed kombucha
That tasted like armpit
[ADAM]
Well, yeah, that was not great
[BARBARA]
Take it and trash it
Burn it or smash it
We have to adapt to survive
We can be fighters
With firе inside us
We're morе than detritus
We're finally alive
The Barbara you married
She is dead and buried
Six feet below
And Barbara the doormat
She's coming back in a new format
Time to let go
Say hello
To Barbara 2.0
[BARBARA, spoken]
Now, I want you to take that antique clock and smash it
[ADAM]
Are you insane? You got any idea how much that is worth?
[BARBARA]
Do it!
[ADAM]
That felt so good!
[sung]
Barbara, you're right
I've always been hiding
Stuck out of sight
Like my un-used aluminum siding
Tragic and static
Trapped in the attic
Now Adam is shedding his skin
No more excuses
We're no longer useless
We've got nothing to lose
We can finally begin
The new Adam is wiser
The old one's fertilizer
It's time to let go
Say hello!
[BARBARA]
There's always a door
To better or more
We have the chalk
We could draw one and walk
But we cannot ignore
That Lydia needs us
[BOTH]
There must be a reason she sees us
[BARBARA]
Adam, now I want in
Give me chaos
But let me begin
I want people and problems and obstacles
Not a house
But a home
[BOTH]
Ready, set, let's go
Maitlands 2.0
Time to let go
Cause the new upgraded Maitlands
Are charging out the gates and
They’re gonna unload
Say hello
To Maitlands 2.0
Maitlands 2.0
Maitlands 2.0
