The guests included the most discerning book designer of the Netherlands Tessa van der Waals, furiously renowned European poet Menno Wigman, Fluxus legend Willem de Ridder – whose spoken words have no limit and worldwide acknowledged type designer Gerard Unger – whose knowledge of the letter form exceeds all others.

Electric Mustafa wrote and performed this special song for this special night.

Darling I don’t know what is right

Should I write down, should I recite? 

One letter’s fine, the next is crap

A minefield and a boobytrap

Well come on what’s your technique?

Should I write or should I speak?

And all these T’s, D’s and E’s

What font will put your mind at ease?

Should I be following the hype?

Or am I really not that type?

Come on it’s so mystique!

Should I write or should I speak?

Should I speak or should I write now?

Should I write or should I speak now?

If I speak there will be trouble

And if I write it will be double

So come on you little freak

Should I write or should I speak?

This indecision’s bugging me

Don’t wanna speak, just make ya see

Exactly what I mean to say

Or should I say it anyway?

Come on and let me know

Should i speak or must I show?

Solo

Should I speak or should I write now?

Should I write or should I speak now?

If I speak there will be trouble

And if I write it will be double

So come on you little freak

Should I write or should I speak?

Should I speak or should I write now?

Should I write or should I speak now?

If I speak there will be trouble

And if I write it will be double

So come on you little freak

Should I write or should I speak?
