Block It

A parody of Beat It by Michael Jackson

A defiant anthem voiced from the receiving mail server's perspective, "Block It" lays down the law on SPF, DKIM, and DMARC alignment — reminding senders that misaligned headers and bad authentication records are a one-way ticket to rejection.

Verse 1
We told you, "Don't you send that e-mail blast here
Don't wanna see your spam, you better disappear"
The policy is strict and the rules are really clear
We block it, just block it
You better stop, you better do what you can
Don't wanna see no spam, don't be a spoofing man (Ooh)
You wanna send mail, better do what you can
We block it, 'cause your records are bad
Chorus
Just block it (Block it), block it (Block it)
No one wants to be rejected
Showin' our filters your records are tight
Failing your DMARC will end the night
Post-Chorus
Just block it (Block it), just block it (Block it)
Just block it (Block it), just block it (Block it)
(Ooh)
Verse 2
The network caught you, better pause while you can
Your headers don't align, you wanna reach a man
You wanna pass our checks, better do what you can
We block it, just block it (Ooh)
You have to show us that your domains are paired (Ooh)
You're playin' with your rep, this ain't no truth or dare (Ooh)
We'll bounce you, then we'll drop you, then we'll tell you it's fair
We block it, 'cause your records are bad
Chorus
Just block it (Block it), block it (Block it)
No one wants to be rejected
Showin' our filters your records are tight
Failing your DMARC will end the night
Just block it (Block it), block it (Block it)
No one wants to be rejected
Showin' our filters your records are tight
Failing your DMARC will end the night
Bridge
Just block it
Block it
Block it
Block it
Block it
Chorus
Block it (Block it), block it (Block it)
No one wants to be rejected
Showin' our filters your records are tight
Failing your DMARC will end the night (End the night)
Just block it (Block it; hoo-hoo), block it (Block it)
No one wants to be rejected (No, no)
Showin' our filters your records are tight (Hee-hee, hee-hee-hee)
Failing your DMARC will end the night
Just block it (Block it), block it (Block it)
No one wants to be rejected (Oh, no)
Showin' our filters your records are tight (Hoo-hoo, hee-hee)
Failing your DMARC will end the night (Hoo)
Just block it (Block it), block it (Block it)
No one wants to be rejected
Showin' our filters your records are tight
Failing your DMARC will end the night (End the night)
Just block it (Block it; hoo-hoo), block it (Block it)
No one wants to be—
