LIVING IN CYBER-PARADISE
I ain't left the house in forty five days
Quit brushing my teeth, forgot how to shave
Get up in the morning and I go to Myspace
Yeah, life is good in my happy place
I got ten thousand friends, they all love me
And I love all of them, virtually
None but the nicest of women and men
And they all thank me for being their friend
Everybody likes me, everyone's nice
Living in cyber-paradise
Sideways happy-face to all you guys
Living in cyber-paradise
Bob4 dropped by and caught me off guard
With a link to an "old man" birthday card
I wrote, "megabyte me", he typed, "go to hell"
And we had ourselves a big L.O.L.
Saturday night, I go to Bambi 7's page
Says she's gonna be a supermodel one day
She could do it too, from the way it sounds
All she's gotta do is lose that last ninety pounds
Everybody likes me, everyone's nice
Living in cyber-paradise
Sideways happy-face to all you guys
Living in cyber-paradise
Candy12's in a thong on her profile
Wearing little more than cleavage and a smile
If you ask her to, she'll forward pictures of her ass
She's looking for Prince Charming, but he's gotta have some class
Then there's Jake9, he's gonna be a rock star
Soon as he can master tuning his guitar
"I'll listen to yours, if you listen to mine
It's in the key of G-demolished, but I think it sounds fine"
Everybody likes me, everyone's nice
Living in cyber-paradise
Sideways happy-face to all you guys
Living in cyber-paradise
Sunshine's still a deadhead, so her bio says
Hasn't come to grips with the fact that Jerry's dead
Refuses to believe he's in the great beyond
She's sure he's making ice cream somewhere in Vermont
Dan's a nice guy, but a little insecure
Sends more bulletins a day than most folks can endure
Top-ten reasons he thinks we're the living end
And we gotta send 'em back to him to prove that we're his friends
Everybody likes me, everyone's nice
Living in cyber-paradise
Sideways happy-face to all you guys
Living in cyber-paradise
Now it hasn't always been a picnic, you know
The wife and kids left several weeks ago
Luckily I had my friends to see me through that
And we didn’t haved to open our mouths at all to chat
And the boss IM'd me to tell me I'd been canned
I told him I'd been busy, but he didn't understand
If he'd only go to Myspace and send a friend request
Surely he would see the reason I am so obsessed
Everybody likes me, everyone's nice
Living in cyber-paradise
Sideways happy-face to all you guys
Living in cyber-paradise
Wait a minute! What's happening? What was that bright flash?
My life just passed before my eyes, I think my hard drive crashed
I sit in silent horror, and wave a fond goodbye
As virtually all of my virtual friends...fry
My life is done, I grab a gun, finger on the trigger
When, on my screen, a spot of light, could it be getting bigger?
Then, like a beacon in the night, when I think it can't get sadder
A message shines through, it's Lorelie, she'd like for me to add her.......game on!
Everybody likes me, everyone's nice
Living in cyber-paradise
Sideways happy-face to all you guys
Living in cyber-paradise
Everybody likes me, everyone's nice
Living in cyber-paradise
Sideways happy-face to all you guys
Living in cyber-paradise
repeat ad infinitum
