[Verse 1] [Acoustic Guitar, slow tempo]
In his armchair he sits, a relic of time
A Google Home hums, a modern paradigm
He squints at the device, a frown on his face
Another new gadget, in this digital space

[Chorus] [Slightly louder, drums enter]
And he'd tell that black circle, that sat on the shelf
To go and fuck itself
For not knowing the weather, or the price of a bet
Just another damn thing, that he couldn't get yet

[Verse 2] [Tempo remains the same]
He'd ask for the news, it played pop from the charts
He'd request a soft song, it listed car parts
His patience grew thin, his temper took hold
At eighty-years-old, he felt out in the cold

[Chorus] [Tempo increases slightly]
And he'd tell that black circle, that sat on the shelf
To go and fuck itself
For not knowing the weather, or the price of a bet
Just another damn thing, that he couldn't get yet

[Bridge] [Slower, more melancholic]
He remembered the days, of radios and knobs
When machines understood, without digital snobs
Now voices responded, with digital delay
Making life harder, in a brand new way

[Chorus] [Full band, powerful vocals]
And he'd tell that black circle, that sat on the shelf
To go and fuck itself
For not knowing the weather, or the price of a bet
Just another damn thing, that he couldn't get yet

[Outro] [Fades out with acoustic guitar]
Oh, that black little circle, a sign of the age
Leaving him stranded, in tech's gilded cage
He sighs and repeats, with a shake of his head
"Just go and... well, never mind," he finally said
