FAKE SATISFACTION I gotta be online Or I’ll feel alone. I hate my real life I live to pay my phone Don’t like the world outside I’d rather stay at home. My friends are avatars We speak emoticons Just use my thumbs to type That’s why they’re always sore I post and wait for likes. It means I’m popular. I love, I laugh, I cry I always want some more. Don’t blink or close my eyes, ‘Cause I’m looking for… Fake satisfaction! My head is always down my mind is far away I only interact with who has liked my page Don’t wanna see the light I’m fine inside my cave I’m free to waste my life ‘Cause all I want is… Fake satisfaction!

JUST ANOTHER ONE It’s been a busy day! I wanna go to bed! Before I close my eyes! I gotta go online! A video full of puppies! And then a stupid quiz! Few hour watching stories? Why do I wanna sleep? Just another one!

SLAVE TO THE LIKE Like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like like! Slave to the like! Slave to the like! Slave to the like! Slave to the like! If I like you, will you like me? I will like you if you like me! Will you like me if I like you? I will like you if you like me!

NOTHING’S GOING TO HAPPEN Looks like you’re having fun. I’m here, look me in the eye. Ok, my friend, I’m done. That’s goodbye! Because... Nothing’s gonna happen Nothing’s gonna happen Nothing’s gonna happen If you waste your life online In bed it’s by your side You poop, you dine, you type I know you think it’s fine But you know that... Nothing’s gonna happen Nothing’s gonna happen Nothing’s gonna happen If you waste your life online

Oversharing 01:58
OVERSHARING I once met a guy who lived to share his life online with strangers. Oversharing is the modern drug dealing. Johnny was that kind of guy who shared his life with all the world In bed as he opened his eyes, a pic: “Good Morning, everyone!” Footage follows in the toilet, then breakfast on his way to work. His desk, his team and then the sunset, with inspirational quotes. One day light went out at night and Johnny woke up late for work. His phone was dead, he couldn’t share, he had to face the real world. Johnny panicked as he realized everyone else was on the phone. He couldn’t interact at all: “Oh, no! I have become a ghost!” So… It didn’t take long for Johnny to realize everyone around was addicted to cell phones. He had the chance to save human race and become a hero, but he had to charge, he had to charge, he had to chaaaaaarge.

LOVE ON THE TOUCHSCREEN The Eiffel tower, me at the beac, me at the gym. Me on a hike, me at a bar, my brand new car. I double tap you, you double tap me, we start to talk. Swipe, swipe, swipe! Love on the touchscreen! Hey, boy, it’s a match. Now what? Hey, girl, it’s a match! Now what? Hey, guys! For real, come on, let’s talk. Are you really trying to find love? Find love! Find love! Find love on the touchscreen. Love on the touchscreen! Then we go out. We tell our stories. And we make out The morning after, a cup of coffee, a cigarette. We say goodbye for ever after. Go back online. Swipe, swipe, swipe. Love on the touchscreen. Hey, boy, it’s a match. Now what? Hey, girl, it’s a match! Now what? Hey, guys! For real, come on, let’s talk. Are you really trying to find love? Find love! Find love! Find love on the touchscreen. Love on the touchscreen! Love on the touchscreen!

SELFIE ESTEEM I gotta show the world how cool I look. But only me to know which of my angles are good. Don’t trust no one to do it, I like to do it on my own. I love to spend the whole day posing to my cell phone. I do in the toilet, I do it in the lift. In front of any mirror or in the middle of the street. I do it for myself, I never wanted any fame. I take a lot of pictures and in all I look the same. Selfie, selfie, selfie low self-esteem! I like to post my photos in all social networks In all of them I smile, yes I look like a robot I pretend to be happy, I don’t have to tell the truth It matters only to me that I click myself so good Selfie, selfie, selfie low self-esteem!

I THINK I LOST MY PASSWORD It must contain eight characters, an uppercase, a lower case, a dollar sign, and a number, but I can’t remember. Already tried my birthday date, my ZIP Code, my favourite film, my favourite band, the dog’s name, fuck, I can’t remember! One two three four five six, A B C D E F G, admin and password, damn, nothing seems to work! I cannot go online! I cannot pay my bills! I cannot use my phone! Because… I think I lost I think I lost I think I lost I think I lost I think I lost I think I lost I think I lost I think I lost I think I lost my password.
