Stacy and Jesse act out relationship limbo in this musical dialogue, where she demands commitment and he offers vague promises and disappearing acts. The lyrics and texting symbols capture the cycle of hope and disappointment that keeps her stuck, while she jokes about moving on with a dog named Limbo.
Can you believe that this is the anniversary of the first day that we met?
I know. Four weeks ago today.
Uh, three months? Jesse, where is this going?
Stacey, we're already here.
What?
Stacey, you and me had chemistry so freaking fast. We've had fun, but now you're wondering where we're headed. I'll answer that. Don't you wish relationships could be more simple? We'll never fight to make love all night. I'll text you things that make you feel nice. Every time we lock eyes, it'll feel like the very first time. Cause I'm only gonna see you once every fortnight in Limbo, limbo, keep it simple, simple. No need to complicate something so great in Limbo, limbo, keep it simple, simple. I'll text you tomorrow. I can't stay tonight. I'm so sorry I just had this really early business thing. I'm really really sorry. Bye. Stacey thinking of you. Sorry for going MIA. Work has been so freaking hectic. LOL heart emoji crying face. Listen, if you're free tomorrow we should watch a movie. We don't need another AMC come to my place it's super free we can watch the movie or we can watch the movie while my phone is blowing up it must be my mom yup.

Stacey, thanks so much for inviting me to brunch. Wow, that's your mom and dad. That's cool. Hey, isn't that Daniel Radcliffe? Nimbo Nimbo, keep it simple, simple. No need to meet your mom and dad like ever again in Nimbo Nimbo, keep it simple, simple. Night time, love first, day time friends. Isn't Limbo just the bestest? Also, you forgot your necklace? That's not your necklace. Stacy, I bought you a necklace. Surprise! It's green like your eyes. Did I say green? Because I'm in blue. I always get those two colors confused. Hey, here's a puppy. I named him Limbo. Limbo stay there. He is the cutest. No other person will know we exist.
Mom, you're obsessed. Can you believe this? Jesse, okay, stop. Stop. I think we need to talk. Jesse, I really like you. We've got chemistry, it's true, but you won't invest in me and I've got better things to do. You flake on me the flame work, but that's not always fact. Is your mom on Tinder, 'cause you've got a new match? I'd love to stay, but sadly I've got other plans tonight. Drinks with a friend from work, he's pretty cute, so goodbye to Limbo Limbo. It's simple, simple, no need to explain. Cupcake, something so freaking lame in limbo limbo. It's simple, simple. This place is weird and creepy, but I'm keeping the dog and changing his name.
Stacy, where you at? No, I'm not drunk. Come over. No. Eggplant emoji.
Ew.
Fire emoji. What? Eggplant emoji.
