matt pless - talkin' information blues lyrics

Loading...

there’s a plague going ’round in the world today
called the instant information age
with cellular phones and cybersp-ce
i hardly even recognize the place
but i bet i can find out everything i wanna know about it

now they found a cure for the tv set
it’s a little machine called the internet
it’s got a little window where windows pop up
so i sat down to take a look and i started talking to it

it’s got everything from the latest fads
to william blake poems and personal ads
when i think of all the culture i could’ve seen
if i only signed off the instant message screen
but it’s the new cigarette and it probably causes brain cancer

now let me tell you all how each day ends
i surf myself to see my friends
people post comments and they all feel cool
and the boys and girls all think they’re beautiful
it feeds your ego and your libido
and everywhere we go, somebody says they know
somebody else who knows ya
come to mysp-ce and twitter my yahoo
and i’ll google all over your facebook

have you heard about the girl i’ve been talking to?
her screen name’s “roxy i heart you”
she sent me pictures and swears she’s eighteen
i’d like to believe her if you know what i mean
but there must be something in the water

we arrange to meet on the street one day
but i couldn’t think of a thing to say
all that came out was “lol” and “brb” and “ttyl”
turns out she wasn’t old enough to have any real vocabulary
anyways so then i was mia

and if you wanna know something that’s kinda scary
we’re raising a nation full of secretaries
who sit around all day and type so fast
they hardly realize time has p-ssed
next thing you know you’re 25 years old and can enter 250 words a minute with one finger

and it’s gonna take more than ritalin
to save my fried attention span
when i think about how the times will change
and we’ll all have computer chips in our brains
makes you wonder what’s the point of being human anymore

it’s got immediate access to tv shows
ringtones, photos, and song downloads
but when it comes to living, i can’t relate
or walk or talk or think or wait
i’ll just sit here and keep checking for that e-mail
or that ebay purchase, evolving

and now everybody’s pocket’s full
with their very own portable oracle
and i can’t believe it’s all come to this
the whole thing’s kinda ridiculous
cause we never ask it any questions
we just wait around to give it another answer

now some of the people might be online part of the time
and part of the people might be online some of the time
but one day all of the people are gonna be online all of the time
rupert murdoch said that
you can be in my screen if i can be in your screen
i said that
