"Alright I have been spamming you, But just because you asked me to" Murray Lachlan Young's GDPR Poem

6 Music's resident poet Murray Lachlan Young's GDPR Poem

Worried about being GDPR compliant? Worry not as 6 Music Breakfast's resident poet Murray Lachlan Young joined this morning with a special poem about the incoming GDPR Law.

OK, yes, I spied on you
For training purposes it’s true
Alright I have been spamming you
But just because you asked me to

OK, OK with pre ticked boxes
Yes, I breached your privacy
Flogged your data, god knows where
And then refused to set you free

But I’m not like I used to be
I’ve grown so much Oh can’t you see?
No longer feckless and nieve
The better, stronger, safer me

And yes I’ve left it stupid late
And yes I know I’ve been away
Just not devious any more
But I’ve contacted you to say

Please don’t go, Is this the end?
Maybe somehow we stay just friends?
Sad face emoji I’m begging you please
Action required I’m down on my knees

Maybe we could just hook up later
And I could well you know?
legitimately process your data

SK: Is round robin email?
No, who do you think I am? OK, yes it is a round robin
SK: I thought so
You see, look I’m being totally honest
