I Call It It

i call it it

i name it it

i don't assume

i don't suppose

i call it it

indifferent it

that makes us crazed

detached and alone

efficient it

i hear you say

keeps you informed

and me in the dark

i call it it

i name away

this iron design

that keeps us apart

stop all the phonecalls. i've sealed up the door

we'll have no need for haircuts and taxes no more

drill a hole in the ceiling if we need the light

i'd suggest it if i thought, if i thought you'd put up a fight

i bite my lip

and plead with it

sans hands, sans face

and sans intercourse

i look at it

i can't resist

repeat these words

that i've said before

i wanted what we all want when we're young

i've had responsibilities enough

instead of having doubts i can't admit

let's think of them as one and call it it
