Lyrics The Internet Killed Me (Screenshot) - Socalled

Facebook betrayed me
The internet killed me
Rogers robbed while Ma Bell billed me
Virtual names dragged in virtual mud
All this scrolling and tagging has me coughing up real blood
Worse than never
Cry me a river, forever
The word meme is a meme of two me's together
We're light as a feather, your tweets will never hurt me
Turned off my notifications so nothing could alert me
We meming, instead of meaning
Everyone is screaming that they're streaming
It's Exhausting. Nothing viral but the virus
Your message is dated, your font is papyrus

Screen shot
Screen shot

Talk to the hand, I'm watching this download
Watching in real time while my social skills erode
Don't write code, panic mode, deflecting
Spent a half a lifetime un-autocorrecting
Scrolling, downloading, rainbow balls spinning
Recovering data Nigerian sweepstake winning
If lies are swords then I'm a swallower
This song is my hipster cupcake
Get me a friend, find me a follower
This poem is my status update
Status uptick, John hashtag Updike
Uptown on the downswing, down home, uptight

Downsize, upmarket on the Downbeat
Uptown girl going down on my retweet
On repeat, waking up erected
Tried to tell you I live you: I got autocorrected
Off the record hope what I said leaks
On the record, too many deadbeats on bedsheets
You're Tootie, I'm Mrs. Garret
Polly amorous, I'm in love with a parrot
