Get Off the Internet - The Microphones

Listen to me

We are the ones who are alive right now

So let’s start living

We’re obsessed with freedom

And living easy lives

But what use is an easy life

Hungry and blind

The hollow cold

The crawling-hunting

Indulging your weakest parts

And still, you’re hungry

Why not wake the fuck up

And smell the air outside

And do a little real work

And come back to life

Clean out the fridge

Take out the garbage

Sweep the floor

Open the doors and windows

Read the news

Shut up about music

Ask a stupid question

Start feeling too ignorant

This is the one world where we live

Curious and busy

As the world is ending

Can I survive this cold dawn

At least I can sit here on the street

Exhaling and strong

Clean up the mess

Get off the internet

We are the ones who are alive right now

So let’s start living
