Arcade Balance

Welcome to the unboxing,

respect the rope

Masking tape and optimism,

let me cook (yup)

{tape peel, scanner beep,

bass enters sideways}

Storage hallway runway, unit B nineteen Tripod on a paint can,

lighting kind of clean Box look mysterious,

thumbnail looking rich Inside: label printer,

refurbished with a glitch (nice) I pose with the warranty like diamonds

in the sun Paid cash after coupons,

responsible fun Receipts in a binder,

tabs color coordinated Mileage in a spreadsheet,

quarterly estimated

Camera wants a flex,

I give it office supplies Inventory insured,

that is grown-up fly (sheesh) {rubbery 808s under a deadpan pocket,

quick double-time flow switch}

It is receipt season,

file it, file it

Tiny little purchase, reconcile it

Everybody posing, I just itemize it Receipt season,

baby, alphabetize it

(yup) {fake-serious hook, whistle doubles the last word} Neighbor rolls a cart

with a chandelier crown I am sealing thermal labels,

building margins from the ground My sedan is paid off,

beige paint, steady heat Retirement contribution lands before the beat Compounding needs

time, so automate the saving That bar is not a joke; future

you deserves the payment Click,

print, stick, ship, no dramatic smoke Low overhead laughing at an overleveraged

joke Not laughing at the person,

just the choices on display We can all get organized and still

look good today {bass drops out,

finger snaps and scanner clicks,

bouncy stop-start flow} It is receipt season,

file it, file it

Tiny little purchase,

reconcile it Everybody posing,

I just itemize it

Receipt season, baby, alphabetize it

(sheesh) {full drums return with brighter whistles} Second box,

cameras zoom Gold or rare,

does it change the room?

Backup printer paper, thirty rolls deep Case discount; now the unit gets

to eat {beat turns cinematic for unnecessary suspense}

It is receipt season,

file it, file it Every little dream,

capitalize it Everybody growing,

no need to disguise it Receipt season,

baby, now monetize it (yup)

(nice) {key-lift feel with stacked goofy ad-libs} Wait,

return that fog machine The deposit is refundable {music stops,

one lonely scanner beep,

bass slams back for one second then cuts}
