Lyrics
Uh, you know, the thing about the internet is that, um, you get on there, and, uh, you know, you think you’re gonna be on there for about 5 or 10 minutes and, uh, next thing ya know, you know, it’s been 2 or 3 hours and, eh, time takes on a whole different meaning, you don’t even realize you’ve been on that long. Uh, you know, my wife will come in and say, “ok, dinner’s about ready” and I’m like, “ok, I’ll be right there, you know, uh, just give me a few minutes” and, you know, 20 minutes later it’s cold and, you know, I…I go in, grab it, shovel it down and then I’m back online, um, even when I just think that I’m, uh, gonna check my e-mail, you know, it should take about 5, 10 minutes next thing you know it’s 2, 3, 4:30 in the morning and, uh, I just, you know, have been on the internet for 2 or 3 hours and I, I don’t know how it happens, but it just does. It’s, there’s just so much out there and there’s so much you can, eh, access and you go to one thing and you find a link to another thing and next thing ya know you’re looking at something else and, uh, you know, there’s another piece of information, you’re off on this tangent, you’re off on that tangent and it’s just, it’s crazy, it’s crazy. I don’t know what, uh, you know, what, uh, I ever did before this, um, I never read this much; go to a library, you know, eh, spend a little time there but it’s not the same. Uh, there’s just too much information that’s readily available right at your fingertips, right in your room, and in your home; you can sit there in your underwear and just go crazy and, uh, it’s just, uh, too much. It’s crazy.
