Losin' My Reputation
A parody of Losin' My Religion by R.E.M.

Verse 1
Oh, mail, it's bigger
It's bigger than you
And you are not me
The tech that I will try to
The filter in their eyes
(Oh no, I've sent too much)
I set it up
Pre-Chorus
That's me in the spam box
That's me on the blacklist
Losin' my reputation
Tryin' to get delivered
And I don't know if I can do it
(Oh no, I've sent too much)
I haven't sent enough
Chorus
I thought that I saw them clicking
I thought that I saw them open
I think I thought I saw them trust
Verse 2
Every hard bounce
Of every email hour
I'm checkin' my configurations
Tryin' to fix my SPF
Like a hurt, lost, and blocked IP, (spoofed)
(Oh no, I've sent too much)
I set it up
Verse 3
Consider this
Consider this, the bounce of the century
Consider this, the slip
That brought my score to its knees, failed
What if all these blocklists come
Flailing around?
Now, I've sent too much
Chorus
I thought that I saw them clicking
I thought that I saw them open
I think I thought I saw them trust
Bridge
But that was just a dream
That was just a dream
Pre-Chorus
That's me in the spam box
That's me on the blacklist
Losin' my reputation
Tryin' to get delivered
And I don't know if I can do it
(Oh no, I've sent too much)
I haven't sent enough
Chorus
I thought that I saw them clicking
I thought that I saw them open
I think I thought I saw them trust
Outro
But that was just a dream
Send, fail, why send?
That was just a dream
Just a dream
Just a dream, dream
