Back in the day when CB radios were cool We used to go out and meet people We weren't glued to phones or computers Typing to strangers under a desk lamp Take me back to yesteryear When we saw the world through our own eyes Take me back to yesteryear Where the point was to socialize Today we take cover behind emojis Making ourselves cooler than we are We have no faults, no bad habits or opinions Just an icon of someone we wish we were Take me back to yesteryear When we saw the world through our own eyes Take me back to yesteryear Where the point was to socialize Multimedia megabombs go off on a daily basis Casualties of the Information Age are we Face to face has been replaced with a website for every yearning I need an app to take me back Back in the day when just driving was cool And your eyes stayed on the road You didn't feel pressure cuz you couldn't text back You actually just enjoyed your time alone Take me back to yesteryear When we saw the world through our own eyes Take me back to yesteryear Where the point was to socialize Take me back to yesteryear When we saw the world through our own eyes Take me back to yesteryear Where the point was to socialize

Plug it in, turn it on, URL, now log on, you’re connected, you’re inside, now it’s time Choose your mate, enter chat, back and forth, this and that, flirt and tease, make believe, time to play Talk for hours, share some things, opening up, listening, getting close, as can be, feeling free Dirty talk, getting hot, sharing pics, clothes come off, think no more, take yourselves, to the edge

Solitary Man 05:20
lyrics

Long days, lonely nights Too much time on my hands Thoughts turn to company Anyone would understand Been here forever and I know the city streets Know where the action is and what I really need Do I proceed? There is the danger that I won't be coming home Without a stranger by my side Try not to judge me, don't begrudge me if you can I'm just a solitary man Workin my fingers to the bone Need some time to unwind Can't play too much solitaire all night Sweet love is on my mind Been here forever and I know the city streets Know where the action is and what I really need Do I proceed? There is the danger that I won't be coming home Without a stranger by my side Try not to judge me, don't begrudge me if you can I'm just a solitary man Can't stop this feeling deep inside Nothing can take the place The touch of a woman every night Nothing can fill that space Been here forever and I know the city streets Know where the action is and what I really need I must proceed There is the danger that I won't be coming home Without a stranger by my side Try not to judge me, don't begrudge me if you can I'm just a solitary man

I get my kicks from kicking you when you're down I like to feel superior I get my thrills when I see you on the ground But you will never know I do When we first met online I knew you were a victim I knew that I could bend you into any shape Your type won't fight too hard cuz you're starved for attention You'll end up doing exactly what I say I get my kicks from kicking you when you're down I like to feel superior I get my thrills when I see you on the ground But you will never know I do You may have thought that I was really something special I guess I am in many unsuspecting ways You may have though that I would love you for forever Regardless of the things I say I get my kicks from kicking you when you're down I like to feel superior I get my thrills when I see you on the ground But you will never know I do I bet that deep inside you really want to leave me But when you think of that it scares you more than I You've got a better chance of living life without me But you'll be with me until the day you die I get my kicks from kicking you when you're down I like to feel superior I get my thrills when I see you on the ground But you will never know I do

I walk the streets like I'm something I look the girls in the eyes My swagger tells them I'm serious about the things I'm gonna do all night I'm always walking like I'm gettin' some, gettin' some I'm always talking like I'm gettin' some, gettin' some I strut my stuff like I'm gettin' some, gettin' some And the truth of the matter is I'm gettin' some I am the guy you've been looking for I am the answer to dreams I am the very description of the guy you have in your fantasies I'm always walking like I'm gettin' some, gettin' some I'm always talking like I'm gettin' some, gettin' some I strut my stuff like I'm gettin' some, gettin' some And the truth of the matter is I'm gettin' some Don't tell your papa Don't tell your ma Don't tell your friends cuz they'll all want me Don't call the doctor You're doing fine Your heart's just racing because of me This is attraction This is divine This is the way it was meant to be I'm not a bad man I'm not a crook I am the answer to everything I walk the streets like I'm hunting I've got my eyes on the prize I've got a need that I can't refuse and I'm very good at telling lies. I'm always walking like I'm gettin' some, gettin' some I'm always talking like I'm gettin' some, gettin' some I strut my stuff like I'm gettin' some, gettin' some And the truth of the matter is I'm gettin' I'm always walking like I'm gettin' some, gettin' some I'm always talking like I'm gettin' some, gettin' some I strut my stuff like I'm gettin' some, gettin' some But the truth of the matter is I'm gettin' none

When we first met online I thought you were a loser I took your confidence as insecurity There's no-one else compares to you You are the one for me it's true How did you slip by my defences? How did you dig through all my trenches? How did you find me in the darkness? Tha darkness was my nest When we spoke on the phone I heard the imperfection I couldn't help but fall for everything you said There's nothing else that you could do It was just meant to be it's true How did you slip by my defences? How did you dig through all my trenches? How did you find me in the darkness? Tha darkness was my nest We made it We made it Through all the years and tears and fears we made it They said it They bet it That you and I would fail Forget it Now that we.re married and we have a life together So many people think that luck was at the helm But you can't help who you attract We get each other that's a fact How did you slip by my defences? How did you dig through all my trenches? How did you find me in the darkness? Tha darkness was my nest We made it We made it Through all the years and tears and fears we made it They said it They bet it That you and I would fail Forget it We made it We made it Through all the years and tears and fears we made it They said it They bet it That you and I would fail We said forget it

You got your swipe left and your swipe right Only hope your decision is right Won't know till that special day When you meet each other face to face Face to face You got your hook up and your let down Only hope you're looking around Won't know till you make it home Alive and well and all alone All alone You take your chances You take the train It's a one-way ticket To another plane Tell me what's like Don't leave out a thing Give me every detail Tell me everything Paint me a picture Paint me a picture Call me crazy, or out of date, this generation, is way off base, risky business, is all the rage, they want to be, on center stage Call me crazy, or out of date, this generation, is way off base, risky business, is all the rage, they want to be, on center stage You got your sad sack and your class clown Only hope you don't fall down Won't know till that fateful day When one of you is blown away Blown away You take your chances You take the train It's a one-way ticket To another plane Tell me what's like Don't leave out a thing Give me every detail Tell me everything Paint me a picture Paint me a picture

Do you ever feel Like the world is turning round and you can't get off the ground But you'd like to run away Is it even real When you try to run but can't cuz your feet are in the sand And you want to run away from everything Is it even real Feeling trapped by technology and the data Worried that you are seen by everyone People you don't know are watching your progress People you don't like are following you every day Do you ever feel Like the time is passing by and you can't begin to try But you'd like to run away Is it even real When you try to take a nap but your head is filled with crap And you want to run away from everything Is it even real Feeling trapped by technology and the data Worried that you are seen by everyone People you don't know are watching your progress People you don't like are following you every day Every secret you possess Is now for all to see What do you have left to tell Is nothing left for me You've got to watch yourself They're right behind You've got to watch yourself Kepp that in mind Do you ever feel Like the world is spinning 'round and you can't get off the ground But you'd like to run away Is it even real When you want to call it off but she tells you to piss off And you want to run away from everything Is it even real Feeling trapped by technology and the data Worried that you are seen by everyone People you don't know are watching your progress People you don't like are following you every day Every secret you possess Is now for all to see What do you have left to tell Is nothing left for me You've got to watch yourself They're right behind You've got to watch yourself Kepp that in mind Watch yourself, watch yourself, baby watch yourself, watch yourself

I Guess We're Done 05:16

I thought we had it all I thought we were the best of friends I thought we made the perfect couple, you and me I thought that things were good I saw no flags of red at all Nothing you said or did was strange or out of sorts And then I saw your post online You said you were single now and doing fine Was I supposed to know? Were you to say a word? This is absurd I guess we're done What happened anyway? What did I say or do so wrong? Or was it something else that you could not explain? Did you meet someone else? Or were you growing tired of me? I need to know and you won't answer all my calls And when I saw your post online You said you were single now and doing fine Was I supposed to know? Were you to say a word? This is absurd I guess we're done I thought someday we'd wed I would propose on bended knee With ring in hand I'd ask and you say yes and cry Is there a chance at all? Could we be two of two again? Maybe a break was all we needed to repair And when I saw your post online You said you were single now and doing fine Was I supposed to know? Were you to say a word? This is absurd I guess we're done I guess it's good this happened now I guess it's good this happened now

You live with uncertainty You bide your time You’re open to the latest breach You’re life's online And you know it is Ya you know it is You're open to attack You've no defence You're screwed with one small hack And then it ends And you know it will Ya you know it will Stranger Danger, you say you know my name but I never seen your face Stranger Danger, your idea of faith is me falling down Stranger Danger, you say you know my name but I never seen your face Stranger Danger, your idea of faith is me falling down Do what you wanna do, say what you wanna say You have some fucking nerve To bitch and whine All this you so deserve It's about time And you know you do Ya you know you do Stranger Danger, you say you know my name but I never seen your face Stranger Danger, your idea of faith is me falling down Stranger Danger, you say you know my name but I never seen your face Stranger Danger, your idea of faith is me falling down
