Think (About what you're tryin to send to me)
A parody of Think by Aretha Franklin
A scraped recipient demands respect in this Aretha-inspired anthem about permission-based sending, calling out cold outreach to purchased lists and the spam traps that punish poor list hygiene. A soulful reminder that consent isn't optional — it's the foundation of every inbox you'll ever reach.

Chorus
You better think (Think)
Think about what you're trying to send to me
Yeah, think (Think, think)
a consent, keep it spam-trap free
Verse 1
Let’s go back, let’s go back
let’s go way on back when
I didn’t even know you
You just scraped me from a list and hit send (Just a lead)
I ain’t no data scientist, I ain’t no expert in I.T.
It don’t take too much high IQ to see this is spam to me
Chorus
You better think (Think)
Think about what you’re sending to me
Oh, think (Think, think)
Use a consent, keep it spam-trap free
Refrain
'Cause Cold Mail (Cold Mail)
It's just Cold Mail (Cold Mail)
Oh, Cold Mail
Yeah, Cold Mail, right now
Oh, Cold Mail (Cold Mail)
I don't want no Cold Mail
Oh, Cold Mail, oh, right now
Yeah, think about it!
You, think about it!
Verse 2
There ain't nothing you could pitch
I could buy from you, but I won't (I won't)
And I was gon-na read, I'm not
If you keep sending junk I don't
Chorus
You better think (Think)
Think about what you're trying to send to me
Oh oh-oh-oh think (What you're tryna to send to me)
(Think)
Use your data, keep it spam-trap free
Verse 3
Bots crawling the web every day
Chasing leads and keeping scores
Trying to flood every inbox with your trash
Well, be careful I don't block yours!
Chorus
Oh, think (Think)
Think about what you're trying to send to me
Wooh! Think (Think)
Use a consent data, keep it spam-trap free
Bridge
You need leads (Need leads)
And I need peace (Don't you know?)
Without permission
Yeah, there ain’t nothing you can do
Outro
Oh, yeah, think about it, baby
(What you're tryin' to send to me)
To the trash now, baby
Think about it right now
Yeah, right now
(To the thrash, I send it) Yeah, ooh
(To the thrash, I send it)
(To the trash... don't send it!)
