Clickity klak, boy, that's the sound of the heat,
I’m keycappin’ mofos, layin' switches on the street,
Gold-plated PCB, drippin’ flex like a boss,
Custom build, every keystroke takin' heads off.
Roll up in the lab with that lube and them pliers,
Click-clack symphony, spittin’ hot like wires,
Gateron reds, Cherry blacks, I stock the entire,
Line up so fresh, got the clackers inspired.
Ain’t no triggers — just that click in my palm,
Tactile assassins — boy, I'm bringin’ the calm,
Snap back, spacebar, I'm reloadin' with charm,
Clickity klak, boy, that's the sound of the heat,
I’m keycappin’ mofos, layin' switches on the street,
Gold-plated PCB, drippin’ flex like a boss,
Custom build, every keystroke takin' heads off.
Artisan caps, got that skull on my pinky,
Type so deadly, even hackers get hinky,
Keyboard flexin’, gold chain, movin' slinky,
Put a cap on a fool, now his build lookin' stinky.
60% gang, no numpad, pure speed,
Hot swap tactics, plant a switch like a seed,
RGB glisten when I'm doin' the deed,
Every keystroke cut deep — yo, my board’s guaranteed.
Click clak, click clak, that's the warning sound,
Better duck when I type, I’m layin’ 'em down,
Caps fly, switches cry, stabilizers get found,
It’s a full-blown raid when I come to your town.
Clickity klak, boy, that's the sound of the heat,
I’m keycappin’ mofos, layin' switches on the street,
Gold-plated PCB, drippin’ flex like a boss,
Custom build, every keystroke takin' heads off.
Keycaps rain, switch plates bang,
Clickity klak’s how the real ones slang,
From solder to fame, it’s a keyboard thang,
I stay keycappin’, boy, remember the name.
Clickity. Klak.
I've never known Bob to rhyme this well, but there it is, I guess. This Friday at STL2600 + DC314, Bob is going to talk about the deep rabbit hole that is building mechanical keyboards, and his adventures in constructing his own.
As usual, doors at 6:00 and talk 7:00. We'll do our best to broadcast it virtually as always. We’ll stream as per usual from:
