Life On Line Lyrics

We are lost in social separation

We forgot that we're all one

What's the cost of the 'Facefook' generation

Craving cool, indulgent fun, but where's the Sun

Locked inside

We hide

Staring at the screen

Sharing shots of where we'd been

Life on line

No sunshine

All our dreams turned to memes

All hooked up and plugged into the network

As we feed upon the feed

All fucked up and desperate for attention

But on transmission, not receive

Can we believe what we receive

See the places that I'd been

And the cool things that I'd seen

Don't you wanna be as cool as me in my cage

I hope you wish that you'd been there

But where you were I just don't care

Just want your comment, like and share on my page

So as we comment, like and share

Sat in our rooms in underwear

Real freedom is becoming rare

The social fabric we all tear

Our time is typing trivia

Into cyber space oblivia

Big pharma binge on our poor health

Big banks are stealing all our wealth

We drink and snog and post and blog

A funny kitten, chasing dog

Balance fallen, off a log

In self indulgent cyber smog

All plugged in to a social site

All dumbed down, mostly sharing shite

Never met our "friends" in a face to face

Our reptilian brains run the human race
