MoBead's second single. First lore-integrated BadBeadRecords track — set explicitly in the SAUL-TEE world. Kitchen lamp at 3am, Tee asleep, AI fleet (cam/hud/uwb/nav/follow-tee/ar/max/merge) assembling the wagon while the human sleeps. Twin-crafts metaphor: bead on thread = bolt on chassis = solder on trace. 103 BPM, E minor. Vibe spine adapted from the Motherboard archive analysis; MoBead's weathered baritone half-chant carries the lead. Vocoded vowel choir as the AI fleet's collective voice. Sung chamber-cocktail bridge. Bead-click foley signature preserved. Hook 'Built itself while you slept' lands 14x across the choruses. Lore beats woven in V1-V3, bridge, final chorus, and outro.
