Lyrics
[Verse 1 — Sisukiro] You're the only one who heard me mute myself And type the real opinion in a chat We have a language made of calendar holds And looks that mean this meeting should be flat I know your coffee and your backup coffee And the voice you use when leadership's in the room You know I eat lunch at my desk on Thursdays And that Thursday lunch means something went kaboom [Chorus — Both] We're not friends exactly We're the two forty-seven debrief We're the glance across the conference table That translates to good grief [Verse 2 — Orikusis] I've never met your husband or your dog You've never met my sister or my house But I know when you're about to quit by Tuesday And you know my resignation face from my espouse You fix my slide deck and I fix your wording And neither of us calls it what it is The most functional relationship I've got Runs on shared drives and passive-aggressive biz [Chorus — Both] We're not friends exactly We're the two forty-seven debrief We're the glance across the conference table That translates to good grief [Bridge — Both, trading lines] [Outro — Both] We'll never get brunch We'll never meet for drinks on a weekend But Monday at eight fifteen You'll ask me how it went And I'll actually tell you
