testing my memorization skills

looks like bo will do just fine in the sesame street movie!

lyric guy here! [Verse 1: Bo Burnham] The world that's around us is pretty amazing But how does it work? It must be comp-l-icated The secret is: The world can only work When everything works together A bee drinks from a flower and leaves with its pollen A squirrel in a tree spreads the seeds that have fallen Everything works together [Pre-Chorus: Bo Burnham] The biggest elephant, the littlest fly The gophers underground, the birds in the sky And every single cricket, every fish in the sea Gives what they can and gets what they need [Chorus: Bo Burnham] That is how the world works That is how the world works From "A" to "zebra" to the worms in the dirt That's how it works [Interlude 1: Bo Burnham & Socko] Hey, everyone, look who stopped by to say hello! It's Socko! Hey! Where you been, Socko? I've been where I always am when you're not wearing me on your hand: in a frightening, liminal space between states of being! Not quite dead, not quite alive! It's similar to a constant state of sleep paralysis Socko, we were just talking about the world and how it works Boy, that sounds complicated! Do you have anything you'd want to teach us about the world? I wouldn't say anything that you probably haven't already said yourself I don't know about that, Socko. How about you give it a try? All right! [Verse 2: Socko] The simple narrative taught in every history class Is demonstrably false and pedagogically classist Don't you know? The world is built with blood! And genocide! And exploitation! The global network of capital essentially functions To separate the worker from the means of production And the FBI killed Martin Luther King [Pre-Chorus: Socko] Private property's inherently theft And neoliberal fascists are destroying the left And every politician, every cop on the street Protects the interests of the pedophilic corporate elite [Chorus: Socko, Bo Burnham & Both] That is how the world works (Really?) That is how the world works Genocide the Natives, say you got to it first That's how it works [Interlude 2: Bo Burnham & Socko] That's pretty intense No shit! What can I do to help? Read a book or something, I don't know. Just don't burden me with the responsibility of educating you. It's incredibly exhausting! I'm sorry, Socko. I was just trying to become a better person Why do you rich fucking white people insist on seeing every socio-political conflict through the myopic lens of your own self-actualization? This isn't about you! So either get with it or get out of the fucking way! Watch your mouth, buddy. Remember who's on whose hand here But that's what I've- Have you not been fucking listening? We are entrenched in- Alright! Alright! I... Wait, wait, wait! No, please! I don't wanna go back, please! I can't go- I can't go back! Please! Please. I'm sorry Are you gonna behave yourself? Yes "Yes," what? Yes, sir Look at me Yes, sir That's better [Chorus: Bo Burnham, Socko & Both] That is how the world works That is how the world works I hope you learned your lesson! (I did, and it hurt!) That's how it works [Outro: Socko] (painful cry)

1:03 Hey kids! Today we’re gonna talk about the world and inequality! I have with me our good friend Socki! Hello! Where have you been socki? Well I’ve been where I always am when you aren’t wearing me on your hand, a frighting liminal space between states of being! Where I’m not quite sure whether I’m dead or alive! That’s great Socki, now Socki we’re talking about the world and what it’s like to be unequal! Do you have anything you wanna teach us about the world, perhaps you have an insight as a woman you’d like to present? I wouldn’t say anything you probably haven’t already said yourself. I don’t know about that Socki! Go on give it a try? All right! The simple narratives taught in every history class is demonstrably false, and sexist and classist. Don’t you know that the world was built with blood! And genocide and exploitation! Our patriarchal society essentially functions to separate women from male independence And only 6 countries give equal legal work Prostitution is inherently rape And Andrew Tate Podcasters are destroying the men And every politician every cop on the street, protect the interest of the pedophilloic corporate elite That’s is how the world works! That is how the world works! 97% of women have been assaulted or worse! That’s how it works! God that is pretty intense… No shit. What can I do to help? I don’t know, just please don’t burden me with the responsibility of educating you. That’s not very kind, I’m just trying to help. You know men’s mental health is like at an all time low right now, there suicide rate- Why do you insist on overseeing women’s suffrage through this lense that it’s a fucking competition? I mean the patriarchy is the literal reason men feel- You know it’s not all men, like this is just a horrible accusation like, I’m one of the good ones Shut up and just listen to me, this is literally not about you Watch your mouth bitch, Remember who is on who’s hand here But that’s what I’ve been saying! Have you not been fucking listening? We are in trenched in a way- All right I don’t have to fucking listen to this No! No! I can’t go back please. Im sorry… please.. are you gonna behave yourself? Yes Yes? What. Yes sir? Fucking look at me. Yes sir. That’s better.

Hey kids Today were gonna learn about the world The world that's around us is pretty amazing But how does it work? It must be complicated The secret is the world can only work When everything works Together A bee drinks from a flower And leaves with its pollen A squirrel in a tree Spread the seeds that have fallen Everything works together The biggest elephant, the littlest fly The gophers underground, the birds in the sky And every single cricket Every fish in the sea Gives what they can And gets what they need That is how the world works (x2) From A to Zebra to the worms in the dirt That's how It works [Bo, Spoken] Hey everyone. Look who stopped by to say hello. Its socko! [Socko, spoken] Hey! [Bo, spoken] Where ya been, Socko? [Socko, spoken] I've been where I always am when you're not wearing me on your hand: In a frightening liminal space between states of being--not quite dead, not quite alive.

The global network of capital essentially functions to separate the worker from the means of production And the FBI killed Martin Luther king! Private property's inherently theft And neo liberal fascists are destroying the left And every politician, every cop on the street Protects the interests of the pedophilic corporate elite That is how the world works [Bo, spoken] Really? [Both] That is how the world works [Socko] Genocide, the natives say you got to it first [Both] That's how [Socko] It works! [Bo, spoken] That's pretty intense [Socko, spoken] No shit [Bo, spoken] What can I do to help? [Socko, spoken] Read a book or something, I dont know. Just don't burden me with the responsibility of educating you. It's incredibly exhausting. [Bo, spoken] I'm sorry Socko, I was just trying to become a better person. [Socko, spoken] Why do you rich fucking white people insist on seeing every sociopolitical conflict through the myopic sense of your own self actualization? This isn't about you! So either get with it, or get out of the fucking way! [Bo, spoken] Watch your mouth buddy, remember who's on who's hand here. [Socko, spoken] That's not- have you not been fucking listening? We are entrenched in-- [Bo, spoken] All right all right-- [Socko, spoken] WAIT WAIT NO PLEASE I DONT WANNA GO BACK! PLEA... (Whimpering) i cant go...i cant go back. Please. Please. I'm sorry. [Bo, spoken] Are you gonna behave yourself? [Socko, spoken] Yes. [Bo, spoken] Yes, what? [Socko, spoken] Yes, s- [Bo, spoken] Look at me. [Socko, spoken] Yes, sir. [Bo, spoken] That's better. [Bo] That is how the world works [Both] That is how the world works [Bo] I hope you learned your lesson! [Socko] I did and it hurt! [Both] That's how [Socko] It....works.... NO NO AGHHGH---
