BIGGER SCREENS

BIGGER SCREENS

Another upgrade -

Another phone –

They tell you it’s better

Yet it’s much the same

But it does a thing

It didn’t do before

That you never needed

Makes you want it more

You sit there tapping

At small screens

Whilst right outside

The world ends

A better screen

With more pixels

Makes the old seem bad

So the same thing sells

But this one curves

Fills up your wall!

Colours are brighter

Freeze-frame your porn!

You sit there watching

Bigger screens

Whilst right outside

The world ends

Different stuff

That’s still the same

Have to stand in the kitchen

To see the full frame

Marketing tools

For gullible fools

Who don’t want to hold

Something six months old

You stand there fighting

For more screens

And just outside

The world ends
