The Internet Is Down
Everything I do, I do online
(Everything we do, we do online)
Stop, no need to worry, we'll be fine

(What? Are you insane, this isn't fine!)
What to do?
(What to do, what to do, what to do?)
What to do?
The internet is down

Where do I put my hands?
How do I function now?
Where do I look? What do I say?
Please someone tell me now!

Without my internet
Without my steady streams
How will I ever find
The dankest of the dankest memes?

No more cat videos
Pirating TV shows
And no more acess to
The greatest wealth of knowledge ever

How will I tweet?
How will I vine?
How will I live
Now that the internet is down?
How will I talk to friends
Who live across the Earth?
How do I watch a livestream
Of an eagle giving birth?

How will I be inspired
Without my insta feed?
How will I order random things
I just don't really need?

No watching daily vlogs
No silly talking dogs
No way to find things without
Using Google Maps to guide us

How will I share?
How will I brag?
How will I live
Now that the internet is down?

Maybe it's good
We could sit here and talk now
Try and read a book
Maybe go for a walk?

Maybe it's good
We are more "in the moment"
Not stuck in screens
Could be nice, I don't know...
Somehow, we'll survive
We will try, do or die
We will to get to leave it all behind!

I guess it's not so bad...
Once we move past our fears
We humans have survived
Like this for many thousand years!

We'll talk in coffee shops
And go outside to play!
We'll live our lives instead of
Watching someone else's day!

We'll have to know 'bout stuff
But that can't be to tough
And now I'll never be
Anonymously cyber-bullied!

Now we can talk!
Now we can be!
Now we can live
Now that the internet is down!

I feel way more aware
Like I got time to spare!
Now no more Netflix
'Till it asks me "Are you even there?"
Life is nore beautiful
Now we are free at last!
Free from the pixels that would
Bind us to our online past!

Now we can finally see
The way we're meant to be
We'll just get news
With one or two big media companies?

No more Twitch streams?
No more dank memes?
Now no more vlogs?
No talking dogs?

No Google street view
No more Tweets
No Am'zon Prime
No waste of time!

Now the internet is...!

Oh, it's back...
No notifications
Seriously?
