Lunchtime Conference Call
Channel: Jonathan Mann
Date: 18/06/2019

So this is a weird one. Potbelly, the sandwich company, hired several songwriters, including me, to make songs that will play all day today while people are waiting for conference calls to begin on UberConference. The idea being, you know, you're sitting there waiting, but you just want to eat something because you're hungry!

Also: Buy-1-get-1-free sandwiches Thurs and Fri (6/20-21)! Wow! 
And: #potbellypartner


Lunchtime conference call
This is not right at all
Gonna be a hungry meeting
We’d all rather be eating

Lunch, it feels like a dream
Some ham and some cheese
With mustard on rye
I can’t even think
My spirits are sinking  
I think I might die  
 
Something toasty or a chocolate chip cookie
It don’t really matter we’re just terribly hungry 
Potbelly sandwiches are toasty delicious 
And not just because we’re being paid to say this

Sitting here waiting for the call to begin
You better believe my tummy’s grumblin’
Who scheduled this, what’s the thought process
I guess let’s eat parts of the office 
I call dibs on the ethernet cables
You take the chairs, you take the tables
It’s good, let’s take care of each other
As long as we don’t have to eat one another 
Cuz that’d be cannibalism 

Do you like pickles
Heck yeah I do don’t you 
No they’re gross
Well that’s ok you’re entitled to your opinion dude 
What you think about onions
I eat them whole and raw
That’s disgusting
Yeah I guess it kind of is ha ha

Hi there! If you're new around these parts, welcome. I'm Jonathan Mann. I write a song every single day, and I've been doing that for the last 10+ years.

Through sick days, tired days, days with no inspiration, the death of my grandma, the breakup of a 5 year long relationship, the marriage to my wife and the birth of our son - I've never missed a day. This is my life's work.
